For Baby B-Dawg

I have a ‘framily’. I have a VERY AWESOME ‘framily’. This is what I call the close nit group of friends that I hang out with and that are there for me all the time. They mean the world to me. They are the ones who make me feel like I have a place in this world, they are the ones who pick me up when I am down, they mean the world to me. I never thought I would have a group of friends so close to me that I would call them family. I knew I would have friends, but these guys are the ones that my world keeps spinning for. There are 10 of us in this group. I won’t use their real names, but here they are: Meow and Husband Mr. Football, Reverend X and Boyfriend Mr.G, Little S, the love of my life (T.Love), myself, and the P Family which consists of Mrs. P, Mr. P, and their sweet little baby that T.Love and I like to call B-Dawg. He is my reason for writing today. And if you would like a great background on us and some cute pics you can check them out at Meow’s personal blog here and here. Check them out, her blog isn’t a weight loss or fitness blog but it’s fun to read. This post will have nothing to do with losing weight, but you should still keep reading because this little guy and the P family all need our prayers today.

Like I said before, B-Dawg belongs to the P famliy. He came into their lives (and ours too) in early September of 2008 and has brought us so many smiles. Before I met B-Dawg, I was very nervous around babies, and never really cared much for them, not in the way that I was some sort of baby hater or sumthin, I’m not that kind of person, but mostly because I thought they were so fragile and I thought I might hurt them, so before him, I never held a baby before. This guy changed my tune. I can’t get enough of him. I want to hold him all the time and see him laugh and smile as much as possible. He stole my heart so much that I now have baby fever and often find myself saying that I want one… I used to say that I don’t want kids. But I do now. Seeing B-Dawg and Mama and Daddy P and how much they love each other and how awesome of an experience they have gone through makes me realize that I do want that and that I will someday have a family of my own with my other half, T.Love.

Well, yesterday was Mr. Footballs birthday. We went to their house for some dinner and cake and to hang out. The P family unfortunately could not make it. Mama P had been saying that something seems different with B-Dawg, so they took him to the hospital last night. I did not think that much of it. I thought he was sick, you know, like the way babies get a cold or something. I wasn’t too worried because in my mind nothing can happen to him except growing up. Look at this guy. There is NO WAY that anything can happen to him. T.Love and I left Mr. Football and Meow’s house around 10 and we had not heard anything yet from the P family. I still didn’t think too much of it. Then, around 11:30pm, Meow calls me. I thought she was calling to talk about last nights episode of Lost. I WISH she had called me to talk about last nights episode of Lost.

She was crying. Mama P called her. They found a tumor on B-Dawg’s Kidney. I didn’t know that was possible. How can that happen? This morning they are meeting with the oncologist to get more details and find out what can be done. If it can be removed. If there needs to be chemotherapy. I didn’t know they could do chemo on a baby, can they do chemo on a baby? I am at work right now, I have so much going on today at work. All I can think about is B-Dawg. All I can think about is what do I say to Mama and Daddy P. They mean so much to me, I don’t want to see them hurting. I feel like telling them it’s going to be okay just isn’t enough. So for now, I am hoping and praying for them that it will all be okay. That this is not that serious. That the technology we have today can fix this. They found it early. That is good. And I am writing this post to ask you to think of this baby today and pray for the P Family.
