When I was stuck in bed for a week due to a bad ankle injury this past Fall, my boys were the best nurses. I was going stir crazy being home "alone" during the day... but they didn't leave the bed all day. They took turns cuddling up by my side while the other one "patrolled" at the foot of the bed. The only problem was that there were fascinated with my crutches. So whenever I had to get up for a potty break, they nearly tripped me!
