Sweet Big Brother

Sometimes, I think we forget how tough Henry being sick is for Owen. He has to watch his brother get daily shots, go to countless doctor appointments and many many trips to the hospital. Though it all, Owen is amazing. Telling Henry that the shot will be OK, playing with him in the play rooms... even bringing toys to the exam room when he's crying.

Yesterday, Henry had a lumbar puncture with chemo. We got to go in after the procedure, when Henry was still sleeping off the anesthetic. Owen, so gently patted his head. He would tell us to be quiet when we started talking because "Henry's sleeping". Such an amazing big brother. Such an amazing little boy. Such an amazing son.
