I wanted to continue documenting Joey's recovery journey by capturing the quiet, often unseen moments of a long hospital stay. These pictures show the honest reality of his rest and endurance, from the warm glow of his bedside lamp to the harsh clarity of daylight filling the room. There was no posing here, just the reality of healing and getting stronger one single day at a time.

Life is not always just about the fun highlights; sometimes it is about the tough road to recovery. I captured these images to document Joey during his difficult time in the hospital and rehab facility. From the quiet exhaustion in his hospital bed to the reality of medical monitors, these raw photos stand as a true testament to his amazing resilience and strength.
