John spent the night with daddy last night. Just talked to him and he said he had a fairly restful night. Dr. Ingram came in for his early rounds this morning and told daddy that they weren't going to do anything to him today. His job was to rest and eat today. Hopefully, we can find him something to eat that he likes and will gobble it up! John said he did eat two fruit cups this morning when he woke up. So that is a good sign. I spent the night with mama last night. Didn't sleep much, worried about next week and going back to work. She is really my main concern because I know that daddy is being taken care of. However, we are having a difficult time weaning ourselves from someone being at the hospital with him around the clock. He won't call the nurse when he is hurting unless we are in there with him. Even on his sick bed he doesn't want to be a bother to anyone. He has always taken care of everybody else!! Anyway, back to last night with mama. I stayed awake most of the night running next week through my mind about what to do about me going back to work. I am having a really hard time with that, because I feel like she really needs me. We can't leave her alone for any long length of time, because she gets so disoriented, and I'm afraid she will get confused and do something to hurt herself. We are all meeting today to discuss the schedule for next week. Around 6:30 this morning I could hear her in her bed sniffling and then just crying. I walked over to her room and asked what was wrong, and she said, "I just miss him so much." If ever there were two people who truly are soul mates, those two take the prize!!! We have been truly blessed to have been the children of two such precious people!!
