HAPPY 10th BIRTHDAY JOHNNY!!!! (A photographic retrospective or: Johnny Romano: The Early Years)

Johnny is TEN! WOO HOO!

Clinic was Friday and his counts were strong — an office visit with a vincristine IV push. In two weeks: labs, and on 5/16 an office visit, labs, LP, VCR, & PEN. I’m not exactly sure how this will work, but according to my calculations he will only have TWO more LP’sEVER! ‘Worst’ case will be three LP’s, but that would mean he would get one in May, August and the final one in September — 3 weeks after the one in August. Only T E N visits to go!!!!!!

In honor of Johnny’s tenth birthday, I have prepared a photographic retrospective of “The Early Years”. That’s a fancy way of saying, “Do you want to see Johnny’s baby pictures?!” — HEY WAIT! WHERE DO YOU THINK YOUR GOING? YOU CAN’T WALK AWAY…

well, that’s just rude.

Joey, when we told him he was going to be a big brother:

Mike thinks all newborns look like Buddy Hackett or a sausage.

APRIL 23, 1998:



4 MONTHS OLD — This is why everyone called him Bubbles (you can still do that if you really want to make him mad):

Joey used go nose to nose with Johnny in his ‘exer-saucer’ and merrily say, “Hi little brother!”, Johnny’s response was the same every time — a swift whack to the head. Joey would take it too — how little things have changed!


The beginning of our summer vacations to see PoPo in HB!

First day of Second grade for Joey, and Kindergarten for Johnny.

This was cute…

NINE YEARS AGO! Now I scream: “SHUT THE DAMN FRIDGE!”

Awwwshhh, don’t wake the boys…


Fast forward to today: “COME ON PEOPLE, GET UP! TAKE THE TRASH OUT, MOW THE LAWN, HOW ‘BOUT DOING A LOAD OF WASH…”
