    Funny. The first thing Andrew told the nurses today was that he wanted a Wendys Baconator. He had to settle for the Mickey D's.

    Andrew came home today from his Dad's house. He had some swelling of the leg yesterday, but that seems to have subsided. He still has some pain, which will last for a while. Next week, we should have the biopsy results. hopefully that will bring good news.

    Thanks brother!

    We are fighting with the school now. They do not want him to come back until he can get around without a wheelchair. They are gonna get an earful tomorrow.

    Are you kidding me! You could sue them for that can't you? Wouldn't they want him in school so he can learn?

    Yes I could, and yes they should. We will be calling the school superintendant tomorrow. If we do not get a favorable response, I will be calling the Department of Education and the US Department of Justice.

    Once the Super gets wind of what is going on, he will straighten it out. We have had problems with the Principal of this school in the past.

    It seems that the school has changed their mind about letting Andrew back to school in his wheelchair. The Principal apologized for the mis-understanding. Which means that the Superintendent of the District go hold of him.

    I think that we are still going to speak to the District Superintendent. It was out of line of that jackass Principal to put us through that, not to mention the other issues we have had with that school.

    Sounds like he has a "God" complex... he needs to be brought down a peg or two (dozen). With so many educators out of work, he should be worried about his job.

    He does not want the school to be inconvenienced or embarassed. he believes in handling everything internally. My buddy is a cop and the school resents the police coming in to arrest or question kids for things like pulling the fire alarm.

    So they are enabling the kids to be punks and not have any repercussion for their actions... that's nice to know.....

    "sending prayers is whispering in ur head to nothing...prayers wont do anything i'm sorry its all in the doctors hands."

    Whoever left the above along with some neutral rep in my box, you are for certain, a coward for not signing your name. You are also an ass. Anyone who takes the time to insult anothers personal beliefs in a time of need should be ashamed of themselves. You should keep you negative thoughts in your own, sad, polluted head. There are plenty of well wishers on this site and I appreciate every one of them, but you sir, or madam can go fuck yourself.
