A QUICK PERSONAL VENT FOR MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS

We are home...home sweet home. Max and I were delighted to be discharged last night and get to sleep in our very own comfy beds. He is in a great mood today...and despite his wheezing, he is quite energetic and happy. However, with his new 24/7 drip feeding), he is quite a handful to watch. Yet another tube for him to grab and pull!!! Crazy kid! :)

I was going online to post what happened yesterday with Max's tests, etc. However, after reading an email from my soon to be ex, I am rolling my eyes and thought I would share his latest.

He started in again this morning about how he thinks this blog is just an ego trip for me. What in the world??? And it gets even worse. Some of you may remember that when we invited him to the birthday party in Wheeling last month, he denied by replying that the party was more to pump up my ego than to celebrate Max's birthday. Where does he come with this stuff???

The fact that Maxwell lived to reach his first birthday is the most amazing miracle. Yet instead of celebrating this INCREDIBLE milestone, he chose to degrade our efforts to share the joy. Wow. I have really tried (as much as possible considering the circumstances) to be civil with this man, but how can I when he says those kind of things or acts the way he does?

The only way the man knows ANYTHING about his son is through this blog. Instead of criticizing it, he should be grateful for the updates. Otherwise he wouldn't even know what Maxwell looked like or quite frankly if he was even breathing. We have communicated plenty of times about work, money, etc., but he hasn't even asked about Maxwell since last year. And I even alerted him about Max's admittance to the hospital and he still didn't even check in on him.

He is so ridiculous that it is almost humorous. But because his behavior impacts Maxwell's future, nothing about it is funny at all. Not in the slightest.

Anyway, I just had to vent for a moment on that issue. None of it is too surprising, but just still so disappointing and outrageous. How could someone be so heartless? Especially with an amazing lil' miracle like Maxwell involved???

I will definitely try and post later today about the tests, the next steps, etc. I know that is FAR more important than venting about my ex's immoral behavior, but I just had to get that off my chest first!

Thanks everyone for your calls and emails during this past week...very appreciated. Max is slowly but surely on the mend, and most importantly he has been doing his happy dance lots and lots! :)

Yeah Vic, you're just "feeding Amy's ego" by reading this, so do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY. Then won't you be "winning" by rising above this big "ego fest"?
You ARE repulsive.

I did notice he never mentioned poor Max's condition in his blog. You know I.E. Prayer request, or hey heads up little one has been admitted. ZIPPO..

I do not know how the WV party was but only can imagine that it was similar to the West Coast Party only surrounded by more family and friends..That party here was all about Max and the celebration of life. It was clear and if he took what I said in my blogs or those pictures and formated and jumped to conclusions then he's a bigger _____ than I thought.

We know the truth and so does Max and that's all that matters.

Vic,

You're one to talk about ego. How many women do you have to sleep with in a month to feed yours? You don't have any clue about what matters in life. That little boy of yours is incredible. Maybe you ought to use this blog to learn about him and his amazing life, instead of just thinking about your own immediate desires.

Amy and Max,

I'm so glad you're home!

Uh? Did I miss something?? I am dumbfounded at how giving up your own ambitions, setting aside your own wants and needs, pulling 24 hour days, and having to be as knowledgable as a pediatric special needs nurse can be construed as feeding your ego!!! I think posturing in front of thousands of WVirginians as a 'family' man with family morals and values is feeding one's ego! I think Vic, that you need to take a long hard look at yourself. You are nothing more than a philandering, egocentric, self absorbed CHILD who can't stand for anyone else to get attention. If anyone is 'feeding their ego' it is you, the parent who voluntarily chooses to shunt his special needs child off on the taxpayers and not be involved in his care...now THAT is someone with an ego to feed....someone who can't stand the fact that maybe his CHILD is getting more attention than he is! UGH...you really are a piece of work...enjoy your time in office Vic..I have a feeling that you'll be feeding your ego elsewhere come the next election!

Given that Vic has chosen to ignore Maxwell thus far, he is probably just hoping little Max will eventually "go away," if you know what I mean.

Thank goodness Vic doesn't do visitation... I'd fear for Max's safety... I can just imagine Vic ignoring one of Max's episodes and then claiming "God's will."

Vic is not only heartless, he's probably dangerous, too. Thank goodness this sleezebag is nearly out of your life.

He should have "deadbeat dad" tatooed across his face. Then his party and potential girlfriends might see him for who he really is.

I'm so sorry you must endure this stress on top of everything else. Hang in there!

I do not see how in the world this blog could be construed as an "ego feeder." He is such a maniacal idiot! BTW, Vic, I'm a voter in your district. I can't wait to give you a piece of my mind the next time you are standing on the street corner waving like an idiot.

And if blogs are nothing but ego feeders, why did you start one of your own, vic???
