The Hospital Adventures of Woody

Recently a loved one was in critical care in the hospital for an extended stay.  Pierce sent his beloved Woody to provide comfort and hugs.  Unfortunately, Woody had other plans.  In fact, Woody got in A LOT of trouble in the hospital.  We received daily photos and videos and if it wasn't one thing it was another.  Woody is lucky the nurses didn't kick him out with all the time outs they had to put him in.

He got into the latex gloves...


Messed with the anesthesia chart...

Tried to take a bath in the sink...


Pulled the call-the-nurse string (a big no no!)


And played around in some rather nasty hospital food...

Turns out Hospital Woody was a bad influence.  The more Hospital Woody sent emails and videos of himself getting into trouble, the more the Woody that stayed at home got into trouble.  Seems both Woodys came from the wrong side of the toy store.  Or Toy Story? 

For a happy ending, our loved one is resting much more comfortably at home now, and hopefully Hospital Woody will behave himself from now on. 

Happy Valentine's Day, readers!

    This is an absolute scream!!! A wonderful Valentine's Day gift for all of us, the gift of laughter! I remember a couple years ago when Anne Marie pulled the nurses cord in the hospital, yikes! We knew nothing till the nurses came running. Your Monday lunch is so adorable, I love the crown bowl. And wonderful pictures of the twins amusing themselves while you were weeding! Happy Valentine's Day, Lisa!!

    Now I thought Woody was the one we could count on to behave. Buzz, I'd expect this from, but Woody....shame, shame, shame.

    Love this post! My coworkers and I did something similar to this but with a Budah statue that a doctor got as a gag gift. He visited many places in the hospital, construction sites, firehouses, and even Idaho each with there own ransom note. I hope your kids enjoyed it. I know we did!
