The last night day Henry was in the hospital I took a walk while he was sleeping (Eddie was still there) and went up to the 8th floor. Remember I told you how wonderful this hospital is? This is a photo of their 8th floor garden. A beautiful big garden w/ swings, flowers and butterflies. A great spot for the sick kiddos to come and sit and get some fresh air. Henry was in isolation so he couldn't visit it.....Also on the 8th floor was a teen lounge (where the kids were playing Wii and watching TV), a SCHOOL (for kids who are hospitalized for a long, long time...so, so sad), and a children's lounge w/ loads of toys and all sorts of volunteers and Child Life employees entertaining kids. They also had a Disney quiz game going on. It was super cute. The kids were buzzing in and answering Disney questions for prizes. One of my fave things about the hospital is a small thing, but I loved it. On the elevators when you pushed the floor you were going to the voice that said "going up....7th floor" was a child's voice. Perfect. A child life volunteer came to our room that last day and asked if they could come in and play w/ Henry. They have so many people to entertain the sick kids. It really is a fabulous hospital.
