We Made Graduation!
« Reply #-1 on: May 22, 2015, 07:17:19 PM »
My son was in the ICU for 8 days & went to floor Monday.
Was discharged Thursday PM , & went to White Coat ceremony Thursday night!
We didn't think he would last through the entire graduation so the Deans meet us on the Stage before everyone else gave him his diploma , hooded him & he came home & napped.
This was nothing short of miraculous if you had seen him 8 days ago!
Few pics!!

I think congratulations to your entire family is in order.  You all survived a serious ordeal.  The graduation was a fitting finish.  Best wishes to a bright future.

What a proud time to be a parent.  The family's beaming would have lit up the room if the lights  had been off.  Dee

Why is it that the only one with a decent education and a lick of sense in the family photo is the one non-doctor?  I guess she makes up for it with her extremely poor taste in husbands.

Congrats (and I'll let you know what my cut is from your recent no-more-tuition raise as soon as I sort my JazzFest photos).
