Dear Diary,

Susie is my room mate. We're both in hospital room #15A.

They wheeled her into my room yesterday.

I was throwing a rubber ball at the door. When they opened the door she caught the ball.

My face light up. No more boredom? That's all I ever wanted!

I opened my mouth to say hello,but she beat me to it.

"Hi, I'm Susie," she said. "I'm not contagious."

The very thought that she was more concerned about me, than herself,

Was priceless. I just smiled. We both new, we were going to be close friends.

Love,

Rosie
