A Visit Home!

Tyler had the opportunity to spend eight hours out of the hospital today. He decided that he would like to go home and spend some time enjoying the gorgeous weather and sunshine. When I arrived at dinner time, Tyler was in his backyard on his swing, basking in the rays of the setting sun. We had a delicious dinner, at the family table, with Tyler finally sitting in his usual seat next to Nanny. This was Tyler’s first time out of the hospital since he was admitted seven weeks ago, so it is understandable that he was exhausted by the end of the day. Tyler looked forward to returning to “his place” at the hospital. When he arrived, there was a special note from one of his friends at the hospital, waiting for him on his pillow. We are all very thankful for his day pass, and look forward to seeing him at home again soon.

Dear Tyler and family,
My family and I are saying prayers for your quick and complete recovery. My son Eric has been through the same thing, was treated at the Children's and is now a healthy 19 year old about to enter college. He was diagnosed 17 years ago! You are in the best hands and everyone at he hospital will provide Tyler with the latest treatments and lots of love.
You are indeed going through a scary time but Tyler's chances of a complete recovery are excellent.
We will be with you in spirit and will look for reports of his progress. Bless you all.
Bonnie
