Dear Stiles,
A week has passed. Lauren has added a couple more pictures to your hospital room. You're up to three now. One of the nurses complemented her, and she only responded, "My daddy taught me". I told you she has your artistic talents.
I haven't been sleeping. Our bed feels empty without you in it, and your side is still made up from the morning of the accident. An action I regret now. It would have been comforting to see your half of the bed as you usually leave it. It might have made coming home that day a little easier...I think.
Love always, Derek.
