The most traumatic and emotional moment of my life was on June 14 1986. My wife Jeramie gave birth to our second amazing child. And, as these pictures show, we slowly realized there was a problem with our son.
The doctors rushed out of the room and room him and we knew something was wrong. They brought him back for Jeramie and me to hold. They were scared. They thought he would die.
@RichardDreyfuss No idea what prompted this thread, but it is beautiful and I adore Ben as well. A fantastic writer with an outlaw spirit. Limitless potential.
@RichardDreyfuss They said there was going to be something wrong with my son, too... But then, turned out, there was just something wrong with ME...Thank God! 😮 Bless you and your sweet Ben, Richard! ❤️😎
@RichardDreyfuss As a one-eyed guy named Peter, I’m embarrassed I never heard of “Peter’s Anomaly” I just thought I was one! I lost my eye at 6, and went through ALL the stuff Ben wrote about in his essay. It brought back some painful and eventually joyful memories. Thank you for sharing.
