critical facebook post

So, I am hear to correct a misimpression of an attempt to correct a misimpression. I am slowly learning to be able to take correction myself. This is very new and part of learning to embrace being an American. And that is largely about reaching out to latino culture because as an English person in America that was never in my playbook before. I was a very classist, racist being and didn’t know it! i took some vicious correction in this regard some time ago but now it is proving through. And I know to do this.

I posted a word picture of my son who was “SHINEY” as a newborn. We both almost died in childbirth. For about 2 years, I have been pursuing the “retroactive interpolation” of a safer childbirth, knowing that it could kill me!! And it almost did! But it was necessary for our survival. A woman used to routinely risk her life going into delivery. We were very luck to be alive. But everything was so challenged and difficult.

So, the “S” was cut off the word “SHINEY!” When I tried to fix it with another word picture it got worse. So, I will just comment that his light is like butter and honey. My mother’s friend said he was a delicious baby. People see him and they just want to eat him up.

So, things are beginning to be back on course again after a whole lot of changes.
