ex machina


the eric update - day 283: enjoying a very special piece of art.

on the day that odin was born, some friends of the family took care of ruby so that gina and diane could come to the hospital. ruby knew that kris was sick and that she and odin would be the the hospital for a long time so she decided to make him a very special piece of art to help cheer him up.

the artwork was hung next to his radiant warming bed when he was only two or three days old and hung near his bed for the entirety of his 96 days in the intensive care unit.

we had the piece professionally mounted and framed so he could enjoy it for years to come, and today odin had a chance to see it for the first time in while since being taken to the framing gallery.

clearly he's quite happy to have it back!

"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
