TWO WEEKS LATER……
April; I’m so glad you are doing so well. Maybe they will let you come home before week 12. All the casts but your arm have come off. Everything is healing faster than they thought. Physical therapy is doing extremely well.
Michael; smiling; I don’t know I hope so that would be wonderful. I get to come home to my three favorite girls in the whole world. Kissing April tenderly.
Dr. Dean; Well, hello Mr. Jackson. How are you Mrs. Jackson? Smiling Are you ready?
April; I’m fine smiling. Ready? Baby, ready for what?
Michael; Oh, I forgot to tell you, pulling down the hospital gown, I’m coming home…TODAY!!! He laughs happily and kisses April tenderly. SURPRISE!!!!
Dr. Dean; giggles. He made me promise not a word. Congratulations you two. Your discharge papers are in and here are your medicines for now. You will only need them for two weeks and then you can stop them if you wish but take yourself off gradually okay? Winking at Michael.
Michael; Okay Dr. Dean. Thank you.
April’ hugging Dr. Dean. Thank you for giving me my husband back.
Dr. Dean; blushing. Ummm.. smiling you are welcome. You all take care now. He leaves the room.
Michael stands and is starting to walk towards the door, when a nurse walks in with a wheelchair. “Sorry Mr. Jackson. Hospital policy. You must use a wheelchairl until we get you outside then you can run, jump, do backflips if you wish.” She smiles at them. Michael sits in the wheelchair.
AT HOME TOGETHER…..
Michael; God it’s good to be home. Baby do you mind if we go to my place so I can get some clothes? I really don’t have anything here but this. Pointing to the outfit he’s wearing.
April; Sure. We can go now if you want.
Michael; Well, let’s get settled here first. I want to see the girls I miss my babies. And I love you too. Kissing her stomach.
April: Smiling at that simple gesture. I love you baby. She smoothed over his head tenderly.
Michael: Kissing April. My baby. Walking into the house, Where’s my angel girls? Smiling
Dina; DADDY!! DADDY!! She runs into Michael’s arms
Sharon; DADDY!! DADDY!! Hugging Michael. Kissing his cheek. I love you daddy!! Are you home forever now daddy?!

Sharon; We love you too daddy!!
Stacy: Well, there you are! Smiling. Welcome home Michael! She kisses his cheek. I’m so glad you are okay. April was a wreck that first week. You are good for her and we are all happy to see her happy again and we know it’s because of you.
