I Woke After 11 Days and Found My 9-Year-Old Grandson Asleep Beside My Hospital Bed—Then He Whispered, “Pretend You’re Still in a Coma”
Again:
Love did not replace practical support.
Walter slept in his own room.
Blue moon night-light.
Pickles at his feet.
The first week was hard.
He woke twice to check whether I was breathing.
I caught him standing in my doorway at two in the morning.
