Since I blathered already this afternoon by way of warmup act, the following 58 pictures from the past 10 days are presented without much further ado.
I should only say that Molli Malou surprised me one morning by “coloring her hair all by herself” and that I will make a video tomorrow that will help put some of these pictures into context. (And will include Jørgen!)
Also… though it’s clear in some of the pictures from today, in other’s it isn’t: Maddie doesn’t have deformed jaundiced cheeks, what you’re seeing is (alas) the stickum bandagey type things that they use to secure her meal line to her face. It hurts her to take them off, so the staff prefers to leave them on even when the feeding tube comes off.
So remember: we start around December 17 and end this afternoon. We go in chronological order, but I’ll let you deduce the dates yourselves since I am just astonished enough at myself for having the wherewithal to have gotten this post put together at all.
The pictures in which all four of us appear together are not necessarily lovely, but they’re all we’ve got and I’ll be damned if I’m not going to post shots of the whole family.
Oh: lastly. With the end of this year, I have decided this evening, we will also retire the Molliblog. I will set up a MolliMalou-and-Maddie blog and we’ll go from there. (Poor Molli Malou. My heart just crushes into ash eight times a day seeing how hard and weird and good and bad this is for her. I think some of these pictures communicate that.)
What lovely photos. I only wish I could have been there.
