Dana had feed Peter Jr. and Tabitha, before giving each of them a bath, getting them changed and dressed, and then placing them in their cribs for the night.
"Sleep tight my little angles," said Dana, as she gently kissed Peter Jr. and Tabitha on the cheek.
Dana then joined her parents and Oscar for dinner, though she didn't really eat much, as all Dana had here mind was Peter.
When the meal was completed, Ward and Alice cleared the table and did the dishes, while Dana went to get Oscar ready for bed.
He had a bath, was changed and dressed into his pajamas.
"Ready for bed little man?" Dana asked.
"Can't sleep without Papa," Oscar answered.
"Oh I think I know what you mean.
You and Papa have a special routine for bedtime.
"Uh-uh."
"Let's see if Mommy can do it as good as Papa."
Dana then lifted Oscar in her arms and pretend to fly him through the hallway to his bedroom.
"Here comes Super Oscar.
Coming to save the day," she said.
Oscar laughed as Dana 'flew' him until he landed softly in his bed.
"Now did Mommy do that as good as Papa does it?" Dana asked.
"Yea," said Oscar, who was still giggling.
"I'm glad."
"But I do miss Papa," said Oscar.
"I miss him to," said Dana, as tears fell from her eyes.
"Mama sad," spoke Oscar.
"Yes I am sad.
But Papa is going to get better."
Dana tucked Oscar into bed and read him a story, though Oscar fell fast asleep before Dana got to the last page.
"Good night sweetheart," she whispered, as Dana kissed Oscar's forehead and quietly walked out the room, not to wake him.

When she returned to the living room, Dana settled on the couch, next to Ward, who was reading a book.
"Here, maybe this will calm your nerves," said Alice, as she handed her daughter a cup of tea.
"Thanks Mom," spoke Dana, as she accepted the tea.
Alice sat down on a chair, with a cup for herself and said, "Dana, we know you're worried about Peter, but try not to be so on edge on about."
"I haven't said anything about being on edge," said Dana.
"No, but I can sense it."
"Your Mother's right.
A parent's job to think of their child is never ending, even when the child grows up," Ward pointed out.
"I'm trying my best to be strong for the kids, but it's very hard," said Dana, as she sipped her tea.
"Sweetheart, it's hard to be strong in a situation like this, but you can't over worry yourself, otherwise you'll become unwell to."
"I know, but just see Peter lying there, he looked so weak."
Dana began to cry as Ward hugged her.
"He's going to be OK," he said.
"You Father's right.
Peter's a tough man," said Alice.
"I think I'm going to call it a night," said Dana.
She said good night to her parents and went into her bedroom.
Dana took a shower, then changed into a pair of light grey sweatpants and one of Peter's shirts, which smelled like him.
"Good night Peter," she whispered as she cried herself to sleep.

That night at a dinner of soup and grilled cheese sandwiches, Grace, Jessica and Christopher held hands, and prayed for hoping Winston, Jeanie and Peter have a speedy and healthy recovery and to watched over.
After they ate, the three of them played a board game of Chutes and Ladders (Grace's pick.)
About an hour or so later, Christopher and Jessica got washed up and ready for bed.
Before heading to their rooms to go to sleep, Christopher asked, "Auntie Grace, since you and Uncle Winston are now married, is he going to live with us?"
"He sure is," Grace answered.
"I wish he was here with us now," said Jessica.
"Me to sweetheart.
Me to."
"Maybe before he comes to stay here, we should get the apartment ready," Christopher suggested.
"Yeah, like do some painting, clean it up," Jessica added.
"That's a great idea you two, said Grace, When we visit Uncle Winston tomorrow, we should start making a list of what we have to do before he moves in.
And maybe, we can even fix up your bedrooms as well."
"Alright," said Jessica.
"Way cool," added Christopher.
For the first time in hours, Grace smiled.
"I know you two are excited, but let's go to bed now.
We have to get to the hospital early to see Uncle Winston," she said to the kids.
Jessica and Christopher headed to their rooms.
Grace tucked each one of them in, gave them each a kiss on the forehead and said goodnight to Christopher and Jessica.

Once the kids were fast asleep, Grace jumped into a quick shower and got dressed for bed.
As tired as she was, Grace could not sleep, so she read a book for awhile, but not before placing Winston's jacket, which he left at the apartment a few days ago, on the other side of the bed.
Grace placed her book on the night stand next to the bed and picked up a photo that was inside a frame.
The photo was of her, Winston and the kids taken at the Central Park Zoo a few months ago.
All four of them had big smiles on their faces.
And while the photo was a happy one, Grace's eyes began to water up.
"Our first night as a family, but we're apart," she whispered through tears.
Just then, the door opened.
In the door way, were Christopher and Jessica.
Grace wiped her eyes, looked at her niece and nephew and asked, "Are you two OK?
Did you have a nightmare?"
"We're fine Auntie Grace, but we're worry about you not having Uncle Winston here," Christopher answered.
"Can we stay with you tonight?" asked Jessica.
"Of course you can," Grace answered.
Jessica and Christopher then entered the room and climbed into bed, each taking a side, after Grace moved to the middle, after putting on Winston's jacket.
She wrapped her arms around each of the kids and said goodnight to them as the three drifted off to sleep.
