Let's go boys! Lou Fusz Geerling

Ok I have seen this posted a few time. I feel the need to share also... three weeks ago Wil was the "emergency" that delayed doctors and nurses getting home. He has also been the reason several nurses were late getting home this past week. One day last week we had to wait a few hours in the clinic for blood to be delivered because there was a trauma in the er and we wanted nothing more than to know that person was given the very best care! Special thanks for those who care for others.

Today Wil was happy we were able to go watch his Lou Fusz team play ⚽️this afternoon. Win or lose, soccer days are the best days. Special thanks to SLSGsoccer for the support, they wore orange socks today! So so proud of the Lou Fusz Geerling boys for playing with not only the pressure of winning "state cup" but the added pressure of playing for Wil. What a joy it is to be able to watch them play with such passion and talent.

We spent the morning at the clinic. Wil's white blood cells were up .7 and he held steady with his hemoglobin (still low but steady!) Like Brandi Lea said "We are so proud of you Wil! Don't know what you did but we are still proud!" We will take any good news we can get. One more week until our bone marrow extraction. #wegotthis

Special thanks to #wilswarriors Christina Rebhan, Kristy DeVaughn Galkowski, & Craig Lorenz (who is a sneaky saint ;) and the best soccer family any kiddo could ask for (you should have seen the sea of orange:)!

My fiance is a emergency room nurse tech. She's dealt with pain, sickness, and death first hand more times than I would like her to have to dealt with. She's come home saddened by these events more times than I can count but still she continues to help people. There was an incident lately she had to help with that she did so like a boss. As I sit here tonight trying to do something nice for her by cleaning her work shoes it's made me realize something. Especially for people in relationships with nurses. And that's the patience it takes to be apart of someone's life that has the line of work she does. Although she can't give me details, she comes home wanting to talk about the work she's done, the good, bad, and ugly. (Hospital policy's don't allow it) And you 120% have to be there for them. You may have had a bad day at work with a customer who has a shitty attitude, but she watched someone take their last breath as she tried to save their life. She had to be there as a mother and father were told their child was no longer with them, she had to watch a 2,4, or even 7 year old fight for their life, or she had to break the news to an elderly lady that her husband of 50 years wants to see her before he goes. In my case that nurse is a she. But for respect of all nurses it does go towards both women and men nurses. Respect the people taking care of you. Whether it's a migraine or a serious injury. You have no idea about the patient they had before you or will have after you. Feel free to share to your nurses to show your respect.
