So as some of you may know I teach CTR 6 in my ward and this week one of the little girls in my class had to be hospitalized for a ruptured apendix. We found out about it on Sunday and so I had my class make her cards during class. I called her parents and left a message saying that I wanted to come and see her in the hospital and bring by the cards. When they called me back they said that Alaina was really excited to see me and asked "Do you think Sister Cannon would come and paint my nails?" Obviously I said of course and planned on going and seeing her yesterday morning. Sadly, about an hour before I was supposed to go see her she had to go back in for surgery so her mom told me she would call me later in the week to come see Alaina when she was feeling better. However, last night at about eight o'clock I got a call from Alaina's mom asking me to come to the hospital. She said that Alaina had been asking for me all day and really wanted me to come. So I went to the hospital and gave her a little mini pedicure and manicure and foot massage. It was really funny because about 30 minutes before I got there they gave her her pain medication as well as bendydryl so she was pretty groggy and sleepy and was really fighting to stay awake. Right after I finished we tucked her into her bed and she was asleep before I left the room. This was a fun experience for me and made me miss all of my little nieces!
