A Normal Night

Tonight feels almost normal (if you can ignore the doctors, nurses, pills, blood pressures, etc.). Josh and Hannah brought in Godfather's Taco Pizza and we all sat around and watched TV in Justin's room. A far cry from just a few days ago! The nurses are still carefully attending to Justin, but there is not a lot to do. They ask every time, "is there ANYTHING you need?" and he always answers, "no, I'm fine." Many have commented that he is the best patient they have ever had.

We laughed our heads off at Josh and Hannah playing a game of "bloody knuckles". It was hilarious and we had to keep our laughing quiet so we wouldn't disturb others.

Hannah and I went through a computer program educating us about seizures, just in case. It was a good thing for everyone to know. We hope that it never happens again, but if it does, we will be more prepared.

Tonight will be Justin's first night to sleep in the hospital alone. We all know he could handle it alone, but why? So one of us was here every night, just to make sure he had everything he needed and didn't have lay here with no one to talk to if he wanted. Tonight most of the family has gone home, and Justin doesn't have any immediate concerns. It is not new or unfamiliar now, so we can all get a good night's sleep and be refreshed for tomorrow. It will be another big day.
