Thein,
You have endured so much pain and discomfort, but still walk around with a smile. The amount of compassion and empathy you have for others is well beyond your years. You have a unique gift and I hope you hold it near and dear to your heart. You amaze me everyday.
Your brothers care and worry about you so much, especially when a surgery is near. Your older brother informed me, that if anyone messed with your tubie; he was going to karate chop them in the throat. Although I do not approve of this violence 😁, coming from an eight year old that loves martial arts… It shows how much he adores you. Even though your younger brother may pull your hair and steal your toys, he is the first to run to your aid when you get hurt. He will give you hugs so tight that, in some way, help you calm down.
Your father and I are so blessed to have you in our lives. We know what a long road you have ahead of you in order to fight this awful disease. So when you are feeling down, know that we will be right beside you as long as you need (and your brothers as wingmen). You will not fight this alone.
“OOO… Snuggle puppy of mine.
Everything about you is especially fine!
I love what you are. I love what you do.
OOOOoooo. I LOVE YOU!!” ~Sandra Boynton
Love, Mom
P.S. The picture is post feeding tube surgery. Your brothers face timed you everyday to say good night.😊
