Short chapter
July 18th, 2017; Lucida 7
A few days after the fireworks my parents came to visit with more people. I couldn't understand what was wrong with me. The people greeted me. My parents came last, i told them "Mom, Dad I want to be an astronaut when I'm older!"
My parents smiled as tears streamed out of their eyes and down their cheeks, almost in unison, scary. But why are they crying? Do they not like the idea?
Everyone that visited afterwards always brought me something space related, weather it was a poster or a stuffed animal. The gifts made me happy
One gift that was really cute was a poster of a cat in space, holding onto a planet, that said something like, "hang in there". All the gifts were put up in the hospital room.
After the gift ordeals people left. I had to take weird meds, i hated the taste of them. The food there was good at least.
