Hospital stays? There have been plenty. I have stayed as little as a week at a time or as long as a month straight. My mommy stays with me day and night to make sure that I am comfortable. My daddy buys me fruit snacks and takes them to me every night when he gets out of a long day of work. He stays there with us until it is time to get kicked out. Even though it is no fun staying at the hospital, getting poked and prodded, waken up every so often to get checked, etc., we have been blessed because we have met some of the most wonderful nurses and roommates during our stays.
