Beauty In a Neck Brace

I was so worried about Zac. And now I know he'll be okay. He's freaking lucky to be alive. But the point is, he's alive. I drove up with my mom to go see him yesterday, and honestly, I'm so happy that I did. I brought him a cupcake from The Chocolate, and a cute little teddy bear. I went into his room, and immediately Zac said, "Alex! Thank you for coming to visit me." I gave him the bear (which he loved. He had it on his tummy the majority of the time(: ) and we sat and talked for almost an hour. I held his hand, and he was on so many pain meds that he was spontaneously falling asleep, and would wake up almost immediately. We had the same conversation twice, which was fun, and kinda funny (am I a bad person for saying that?) He was slurring pretty bad. He's having a hard time moving left arm and hand, but he's made good progress, from what his mom has said. We planned what we were going to do when he got up and running once he was back from the hospital. The Chocolate is a must. He hasn't been there...watch me get him addicted to it. Muahaha. He was in so much pain. I could tell. He handled it well, seems like he has a high pain threshold, but I could tell he was in a lot of pain. He is such a beautiful person. Seriously. I came to visit HIM in the hospital, and he wanted to talk about what I was up to. Such a sweetheart. I had to go after a bit, so I kissed him on the head, and said good bye. I'll be visiting him at least once week until he gets back from the hospital. Looooove that kid. So much. I'd had a knot in my stomach all Sunday and Monday, and now that I know that he's okay, and he'll be totally okay. It's gone. I finally unclenched my tummy. I'm so happy he's alright. I was so worried.

Zac. Get better soon. Good luck in Physical Therapy today. I'll keep you in my thoughts.

Love you buddy!!!!
