Camp Hospital

So if you ever have had the pleasure of a prolonged stay at a hospital, you have the realization that you are there to get well, but the vacuum of boredom really messes with your Zen. You can only watch so much TV or cartoons, walk the three floors of the hospital, play in the play room, or just walk the long hallways before you need a break. For us as the parents we generally would work in 48 hour shifts and it tended to work well. For Mattie, it wasnt so easy, but found if we laughed and giggled and did silly things, went to the roof garden to play darth vader vs obi one, or driving a remote control car in the bamboo laden fung shue garden, we got by. Some of the most pleasurable time was during pet therapy days, and Mattie really loved going to those and getting lost in the interaction of a boy and a dog.
