Last night when I laid down in bed I thought I was laying on a cloud. This feeling from my hard hospital bed that had a spring digging into my back. I had noticed after they made my bed it looked different. I looked closer and saw they had put on this soft "mattress cover" that was half as thick as the normal mattress. Normally it takes me forever to get comfortable and fall asleep. Last night I laid down and was asleep the fastest I've been here. It was so much more comfortable, although I still woke up a lot during the night. No one came to wake me but they were still loud and I woke up at the usual 7:30. I can't wait to go home and sleep in!!!
I got lots of visitors again today which was really fun. I got to see some people for the first time since I left and they noticed a difference which is really exciting. The chicken was actually good tonight! And I had 2 milkshakes!! I hung out in RT and then I had all the girls nails. I just have to say if medicine doesn't work out I seem to have a promising career as a nail artist. Night nurses seem to be the most fun of the nurses. Some of us congregated around the nurses station and hung out with them. Shriner's has some of the greatest nurses!!
I'm getting pretty tired, "grandma" can't do the late nights like she used to. (The kids nickname for me is grandma, we all have roles in this "family"). Today actually pretty fun!! I'm really looking forward to tomorrow!! :)
