 Fortress of Brilliance ღ Mommy Quad

Hmm. I'm a little bored. Which is why I'm writing, one last time before we're off to school in the morning. So, for my last update till . . . . the next one, I get to tell you all about my day. Grandma Angelina took us (Joey and I) to see Benny, at my request. Mum took us once, just us and Madi. She doesn't want the younger kids going, they know but she thinks it's less painful if they don't see. I know I've told you before, my cousin Benny is in the hospital. In a coma. It's been about a year now? I miss him so much, I don't even know what to say when that subject comes up. I feel so bad for Sammy, Danny and my aunt and uncle. For everyone involved, really.. it wasn't an expected event. Not that something like that ever is. But it's been a year, shouldn't he be waking up?
If he does wake up will he remember anything? Will he remember his family? His friends? I wouldn't dare ask mum, for fear of her breaking down again. I asked one of Benny's nurses though, when she came in while we were visiting. She said she was sorry, but she couldn't say. Their main concern was him waking up. Grandma answered too, I liked hers better. She said even when he was little, Benny was always a little soldier in her eyes. She believes he'll wake up and be good as new, but only time will tell when that'll happen.
It was hard to sit there by his bed and try keeping a smile on my face. Joey wasn't able to, but I don't know.. I know Benny couldn't see me, I just felt like I had to stay strong. I couldn't cry, like (almost) everyone else had. Grandma was quiet almost the entire time, except when answering a question. When we were going home, she said we shouldn't be sad because he's there. He's in a deep sleep recovering, and regaining his strength after the accident. I sort of understand what she means, and I know she's right. It still makes me sad though. Benny's missing so much; And most of all, we're all missing him.
I should probably wrap this page up, my wrist kinda hurts. I'll have to see Nurse Numel after showing the firsties to our common room lounge, or the following day. Now that I think about it, this is the second time I've hurt my left wrist. The last time I broke it, morning of going to catch Hogwarts Express. Flying incident, nottt fun.
This time, I don't think I broke it. It aches, but it's not the same. How did I manage this you ask? Grandma has horses. Put two and two together. No! I didn't fall off.. I fell of while trying to climb down. Totally different. And Snow's the biggest of the three, mind you. I didn't want to go to a healers or doctors, I found that senseless to waste what was left of our last day before going back to Hogwarts (not that I'm not excited, because I definitely am).
All is well, my wrist and hand is wrapped up in that elastic bandages stuff to keep me from hurting myself further. I got to pick out the color, which was awesome. It's bright blue. That probably means it'll be the first thing Lexi notices, I'm not sure if that was the best choice now, but... I like this color. Oh well. I'm off to bed!
