BackBlip yesterday

On April 10th, Reuben went into UCLA hospital to remove a subaortic membrane tissue through his second open heart surgery and his 18th surgery to date. After some of the biggest challenges we've ever faced, his airway not being visualized in a traumatic situation before surgery, the collapse of his left lung after surgery, and more pain, fear and sadness than any man should experience in a lifetime, he has once again weathered what life has thrown at him and come out smiling. The heart repair was completely successful. Along the journey he continues to inspire and warm hearts.

I am beyond proud of my little Braveheart, my extraordinarily wise and beautiful young man.

Today, he came home...

PS How fitting the thumbnail from last year, one of my favorite canvases I have of Reuben, making his mark on this world, this incredible journey he continues to take.
