2. He's home

The blood vessel didn't burst so he didn't need surgery. Paralyzed on his left side. He moved his finger yesterday. Trying to keep him in good spirits but he's so scared. I cannot imagine going through that.

Most of my neighbors are really good folks. There's one that'll blast his bass music which pisses me off, but I think someone complained so he turns it off at dark.

Today is something else though. The shooting always bothers me and my pets. Hopefully they all got to play with their toys and theyll put them away tmrw
