So last Friday, on the day of Lucy's surgery, she was so sad that she was going to miss the big snow storm and Dr. Seuss Night at school. As it turns out, Dr. Seuss Night was postponed, due to the pending storm - which also never happened. So she didn't miss them.
Then, on Dr. Seuss' actual birthday, the hospital had a big celebration. They offered a buffet breakfast of green eggs (scrambled) and ham (as well as fresh fruit) to the families on the floor. Normally we don't get food here, just the kids. Then they served the kids green eggs on their breakfast tray, along with their normal choices of food. Then a doctor dressed as the Cat in the Hat came around to see the kids.
The playroom spent the day playing games, reading stories, doing crafts, etc. all centered around Dr. Seuss, for the kids to come and go as they wanted to. It is so neat all they offer to the children here at UC Davis.
I haven't been able to post pictures, because I don't have a card reader here at the hospital - but the wonderful lady who took pictures of the kids with the Cat in the Hat, emailed me the pic, so I could share it with you. Enjoy!
