There is a cafeteria but it has very limited hours (which is surprising since it's a HUGE hospital) and the food leaves a lot to be desired. I can get an in/out pass for the parking lot so I don't have to keep paying to ransom my car so I can leave and get something. That is just time away from her than freaks her out though.

She seems a little stronger today but still nowhere near enough to come home. They can't find anything wrong with her that is out of the normal for her so it's extremely frustrating.

Thanks for the kudos Donna. It is a constant struggle to keep from being 'in the pit' all the time. Being aware of that and working my way away from it is pretty difficult, but I'm sure it's nothing less than anyone else deals with. It just seems so unnatural to be persistently aware of how you express your feelings and watching everything you say so that others don't perceive you in a certain light. How the heck does someone keep this up their whole life? I don't know how I'm going to do it! It's exhausting!
