Hospital visit
Jason is very much the little ‘prince’ between ‘princesses’ at school. He is a real little gentleman and most of the girls want to be his friend.
The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease. — Voltaire
One of his little friends started getting sick on Wednesday last week and went home from school during the day. Thursday (on his birthday) she went to school though. She was adamant to go to his birthday party. Half way through the party she got a fever though and went home. In the end they had to admit her to hospital and she’s been there since Saturday.
We went to visit her after school yesterday. When we got there, she was looking really pale, sick and very tired. We visited for about 30 minutes when I said it’s time for us to leave. She wanted nothing of that. She wanted Jason to stay. Her dad and I agreed that she is looking better and maybe having him there was a good thing. So he stayed.
Apparently the nursing staff came to make up her bed but then noticed the two lying in bed together and just left it lol They stayed like this, till I picked him up much later.
I love his relationships with the girls. Quite the gentleman this guy.
The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.

Maybe he has a healing gift – oh god I’m starting to sound like my mother in law…
But seriously…maybe you should check it out

Looks like a friendship that will last a lifetime. Walker has a friend like this and they are best friends.

That is so awesome that he could be there for his friend and help lift her spirits when she is sick. Poor thing is probably scared from being away from home and in a hospital, yet she has her friend, so it’s a bit better.
How cute are they? Too cute laying in that hospital bed together!!!
What a sweet child you have!

Ah, that is the sweetest thing. How nice to have a boy friend to keep her company. What is she sick with that required her to be in the hospital?
