And so the weeks went by rather monotonously for Cady. Many of her friends and acquaintances came to visit, but she was still alone for most of the day. Her condition had now improved so much that she was allowed to sit up and read. She had been given a lap-table, and her father had bought her a diary, so she now often sat up and jotted down her thoughts and feelings. Cady had never realized how pleasant and diverting this could be.
Nurse Ank, who now had other patients to attend to, kept up her practice of sitting and talking to Cady for half an hour every morning, after she had washed her and got her ready for breakfast.
