I'm Back
Well I am back from seeing Wes in Houston. It was the most fun that I have had in a while. I missed him a bunch but once you get out there you get homesick very easily. I can;t imagine being out there for what is going on 6 weeks I think. I went to Joey's house yesterday after I got home. I missed him so much. I feel better to be home but I am ready to get up and go back out there to see him again. He got and walked alot while we were there so even though he was tired I know it did him good. Going across 5 states and back in 4 days is not fun, but to see Wes it was worth it. Joey has been such a support system. He is my rock right now and the only thing holding me together. Without him I don't know what I would do. When I got home yesterday he was outside waiting for me to pull up in his driveway. He came up and gave me the biggest hug ever and I felt so much better jus being wrapped in his arms. I brought him home some presents cause we stayed in 3 different states ( 1st Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi; 2nd Houston, Texas; last 4 blocks from Bourbon St. in New Orleans, Louisianna). I brought him some beads from Bourbon St. that I hope he liked cause it had the Navy, Army, and Air Force on them. Also I brought him a Big Dog shirt form Houston with poker playing dogs on the back. I brought Brittany a birthday present from Bourbon St., some squeaky duck beads. I hope they both enjoy them. But anyways being in Hoouston and staying in the Ronald McDonald House with Mrs. Angie (which is where they are staying for free when they aren't in the hospital) has really opened my eyes. I have learned just from this experience that I am a truely blessed person and that if you go to a place like this the people though all in the same boat when it comes to some sort of illness, they are like one huge family. I want to say hey to Tiffany Hayes, her son Parker, and the rest of the Hayes family. It was so nice to meet yall. If you didn't know Parker has become like Wes's little brother out there. Also I'd like to say HI to Anjuan (spelling??). These people made us feel so welcome though we were only there for one night. The nurses and doctors are so sweet and you can tell that they really love Wes (who couldn't love my big bro.)"Boss" (what the nurses call him) made sure that we got the full tour of everything and even sort of tracked us as we drove out there. It was so much fun. Thanks again to Mrs. Angie and Mr. Michael and especially Wes for allowing us to go out there and see them. It meant so much and was very reassuring. I love and miss all of yall and hope to see yal very soon.
