Sunday the 18th

The last 24 hours have been relatively uneventful. Nothing's changed except for the date which is a very good thing. Melissa hit her limit in terms of patience last night and needed to vent. She went over and laid on the couch in her room as her act of defiance from staying in her bed 24-7. I'm extremely fortunate to get some breaks from the hospital. I've snuck out yesterday and today for a few hours and have been able to work out and burn some energy and help relax. I wish desperately that Melissa could have a good outlet, but also hope she'll stay in the hospital for a really long time.

Hello hello! I have been waiting for an appropriate quote to show itself to me, and it finally has!

Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant.
- Robert Louis Stevenson

Melissa, you are doing a wonderful job staying horizontal and calming your insides enough to keep Bea stable. And Matt, you are also doing a wonderful job as the liaison to the outside world.

Every single one of those calendar pages you rip off is another seed.

Take care (and know we're thinking of you!)
