Wanting to go to Hawaii!

Wow! I am a crazy boy! why do I say that? Because I must be crazy to want to hang out in this hospital for soooooooooooooo longgggggggggggggg. I have been here since June 5th, and I am really getting ready to go home. My bags are packed I'm ready to go. I wish I was leaving on a jetplane. To a place far away. Perhaps Hawaii, yeah, that would be great! I need a vacation from this place ya'll call earth! I need a paradise place like hawaii! To bad though that Dole has closed the pineapple production orchards their, or so I hear.

I am breathing on my own now, and even my little heart is beating on my own too! Pretty cool huh?! I still have a tube up my nose, down my throat, and into my gut, but hey I'm alive baby! I'm alive! Remember that Living life lively is to be Alive! How many of you can say that you are doing that? The lively living part? Are all of you living life to its fullest? Enjoying every breath God has giving you? Doing things today you have been putting off for ever? Feeling perhaps a breath of fresh air that you have been craving forever and a day?

Man oh man, I am so thankful to God, our Father in Heaven for every breath I am able to take. For every minute spent with my family. For every drop of the concotion that the nurses call food that is pumped into my tummy through the "tube".

My hand is sort of hurting a bit. MORPHINE! Ahh, the answer to my prayers. This stuff is cool! It says, pain, pain, go away, I am going to sleepy night, night land today! Ah yeah! But remember, to get this you'd have to be a sick person like me, so I don't recommend that. Thank goodness for modern medicine! Wonderful compared to just a few decades ago, yet archaic compared to Dr. McCoys' practice! lol ( remeber, lol means a joke!) Are you listening uncles?! Stay away from the morphine! lol

So, they tell my mom and dad that I am slowly getting better, which stinks, the slowly part. I wish Drs' Woods, Boville, McClosky, Pascal, Asplen, McCready, Kim, Stefanelli, and the rest could figure out a get better quick pill. I would be so grateful to them. I hate IVs in the tummy! Give me drugs you evil pokers of flesh! Or be gone you vile creatures!

Well, I gotta go crash after I toot!
Go and enjoy yourselves for goodness sakes, God made us to have joy!

Ole McDonal had a farm!

I am so jealous right now! I know that I am not supposed to be, but I am. Yesterday my siblings went to a farm! Yup, I real life, chickens, sheep, and things farm, and right outside of Kent towards Covington. Yes, there is still the rural part of King County left, even after all the building up the past decades, or so I am told.

Well, Savannah, Mark, Nalana, and Janae had a blast. They chased the animal through the grass, of which was tall as savannah, and way taller then the rest of them. They even brought home some yummy farm raised eggs! I am so jealous, did I mention that? I have to sit here in this hospital bed all day and night. At least I seem to be getting better.

The Dr. says my heart is doing well, and my lungs too. I am having a little trouble with my tummy though. It doesnt hurt much, but I am retaing a bit of water, and can't really digest food like the nurses and doc thought I could yet. So I am back to IVing it with a vitamin supplement and sucrose based yum yums.

They are going to have to call in a doc that figures out what is wrong with my tummy and fix it up all nice and swell.

Mommy has been coming every day to visit me as dad went back to work this week. Mom tells me that dad wishes he could come up every day too, and misses me something terrible! Alas, he doesn't play the lottery, so we are going to be rich, so he has to work, lol.

Mom even brought her "sister" Rebecca with her yesterday to visit with me. I sure like Mom and Becca, they are so nice, and read books, plays music, and talk to me alot. Moms cousins Phil and Josie have come up alot to see me too! I sure love visitors, especially family, coming up to see me and talk with me.

Well, I need to rest for now, Hope to see some of you soon! Oh no! I just fluffed!
