Captain’s Log: Stardate 0601.16

20160601_171438

Many missions accomplished today, particularly the early remove of the photo-therapy lights.  The jaundice is receding, and I will get checked again tomorrow morning.  One of the nurses commented how handsome I was, to which the Admiral clapped his hands and stated “mission accomplished” and proceeded to check another one off the board.  Still hoping to accomplish my last mission this evening.

Unfortunately, command called away Counselor Michelle, and she will be sorely missed.  Her presence on the bridge was appreciated, and was a huge boost to crew morale.

Chief Medical Officer Mom is having some difficult adjusting to the current situation.  I understand that my brother Finn has been on her mind lately, and she feels so torn between loving me and loving him, and reconciling the situation internally.  Admiral Dad encourages her to not lose hope, and that it is perfectly normal to feel a bit depressed given the current status of the ship.  She has been through so many trials this past year, and I know that in time, she will come to love me without feeling guilt for being unable to love Finn as if he were still here.  These things take time, and I am a patient one.

Admiral Dad is often remarking to everyone how cool under pressure I am.  It’s true.  i know that when the medical crew is checking all my vitals that it can be a bit irritating, and I express my frustration.  But as soon as they are finished, I realize it wasn’t so bad and am able to pacify myself.  I think it is the mark of a great captain, and the Admiral says I will do great things with my life.

A special hello to Lt. Aunt Pam, who is reviewing these logs back at Command AZ.  I look forward to meeting her some day.

  1. I know the 5th mission was the easiest one to accomplish, you are doing great with all your missions for today. but I cant make out what the last mission says completely can you help me Captain B. if you need help with it i’m sure your Admiral Dad can help you.

  2. Reporting in, Captain Brennan.

    I am monitoring your log and wanted to report that I am working my way from “a galaxy far, far away” (Yoda will explain). I expect to rendezvous with you on Stardate 0617.16. When I arrive we can discuss assisting you with Mission Six as well as many, many missions to come! In the meantime, keep me apprised of your progress.

    Stay calm, indeed!

  3. Loving a second child does not take away any love for the first child. It only makes your heart bigger, it does not Diminish any love for anyone. Finn is and always will be loved He is permanently in your heart.

    Brennan looks so healthy! Nice round tummy.
