Annebelle’s VNS surgery coming up and if we’re going to be honest, hospital stays are THE WORST. Once your child gets admitted and you get a room you are in for a long stay of repeat Disney movies on a uncomfortable “bed” (that is actually a bench). Most children’s hospitals are amazing at keeping the child entertained because it's hard to keep a child entertained and in bed for days at a time. As a mom of a child in the hospital I am constantly thinking of ways to entertain her while she’s stuck in bed recovering and hooked up to machines. Finally night time falls and I have time to myself and it after a couple days that alone time is actually really boring. Parents aren’t hooked up to machines or confined to a room (for the most part) but that doesn’t mean that we don’t need activities of our own, so with help from my special needs community I have compiled a list of activities for PARENTS during their child's hospital stay.
