The social network has sort of been my link to the outside world. Even though I can’t TALK on my cell phone in the hospital, I can text and go online so I do spend some time doing that every day. It has helped spread the word quickly about what’s been going on and its been a source of comfort getting so many nice comments and messages.

Sometimes its really nice to hop on and see what my friends are up to – and know that the world is going on as usual. Other times it makes me a little bitter that everyone can go about their lives while I’m stuck here. It’s just one of those things.

But if I didn’t have Facebook, I’m sure I would be going crazy of boredom. Plus I would’ve had no idea that today was Saturday or that it was almost 80 degrees outside!

Enjoy, friends. I’ll be back to join you in the real world soon.
