I woke up early the next morning
Taking in my surroundings. Managing only getting three hours of sleep, then suddenly it hits me l'm in the hospital
I swore I was dreaming for a second
Then a young woman enters my
Hi Mrs. Adams Foster, l'm Kim your nurse. I need to check your vitals
She walks over and begins checking
My blood pressure. Kim jots down my information in my file and then she takes my temperature, it beeps and Kim removes it from my mouth
Kim do you know where my wife is
Lena asks. She told me to tell you
She needed to run some errands and she'll be back in a couple of hours
Kim replies, thank you Lena responds kindly. The dietary aide is coming around to deliver breakfast soon
The last thing Lena wanted was to eat some nasty hospital food, just thinking about it make her stomach turn. If there's anything else I can help you with, please feel free to press the button on your remote control
Kim tells me. Lena doesn't say nothing
As Kim leaves the room, Lena picks up her cellphone and dials her supervisor's number to let her know
She needs to take a temporary leave of absence from the center. Lena l'm surprise to hear voice, l was beginning to get worry the older woman said. The reason why l'm calling, Lena's boss instantly cuts her off. Lena your mother stopped by here a little while ago and told me about your condition, no worries
Your job will be here once your feeling better. You're still be paid your regular salary while you're out on sick leave, so focus on getting better
We'll be thinking about you Lena's boss said. Thank you so much for understanding, Lena replies
She ends the call. Lena's can't believe her mother went behind her back
And went up to her job and told her
Supervisor about her illness without her permission, she's mad as hell
Lena's not sure how she feels about the news she just received. Lena has always been in control of her own life
Now she has to rely on her family for support. Lena knows she can be stubborn at times, Lena begins crying
She was feeling so many emotions
Lost, hurt and confused. Somebody knocks on the door, come in she says
A woman enters carrying a tray with oatmeal, eggs, wheat toast, fresh fruit and orange juice. Good morning
Jennette said, morning Lena States
The woman moves Lena's the table
Over to Lena's bed side and lays
The tray of food down. Lena just looks at it, Jennette stands there observing
Lena carefully, Lena feels she's being watched. You really need to eat
Jennette tells me, Lena doesn't feel like arguing with this woman. Lena manages to eat one piece of toast and four spoonful of oatmeal to get Jennette off her back. Then she drinks her orange juice with out a problem
Lena pushes the cart over, happy now
She said coldly. Jennette takes Lena's tray and exits the room, Lena turns on the TV for something to watch until
Stef returns. Lena was in no mood for visitors, after speaking with her parents last night about keeping Braylon and Nyla with them for a while till she feels better. As long as Kathleen comes in and continues watching them,

After informing the Dean she needed to take some time off from work to be there for her wife. The older woman was sympathetic to her Stef's partner
Suddenly fell ill. Stef felt a heavy burden being lifted from her shoulders. She headed to the mall
to pick up a few things Lena needed
For her stay at the hospital, Stef's already gone to the Walmart to pick up some personal products such as
Deodorant, lotion shampoo conditioner. Underwear, bras

It was money from her father in law
Who stopped by the hospital to give her some cash her and Lena, even when Stef refused to take Nathaniel's anything from Lena's parents, Nathaniel didn't take no for an answer. Eventually Stef generously accepted his offer, her father taught her. How to stand on her own feet
And never accept any handouts
Only if necessary, Stef arrived at the shopping mall. Stef's been by the gas station to fill up her car with fuel
She's good on gas for two weeks
Stef enter the entrance, she went directly into body and body works
For Lena's favorite hand cream cucumber melon and sweet pea
Stef got the shower gel as well
She wanted to get Lena whatever she needed to make her feel special and appreciated. Stef took her items up to the counter to pay for them, the lady rung up her merchandise individually and gave Stef her total. Stef handed her the money, she anxiously waits for her change. The lady hands me the correct amount back, Stef took her bag and exits the store. Stef walks towards down to Old Navy outlet
