Pediatrician

Today we saw Dr. B. He said that she looked great! He couldn't believe that she had surgery a week ago. I was a little concerned about some chestiness when she would breath but he said it was mostly nasal and the chest was due to her being intubated. She is definitely acting like her old self. Now, we just need to get her back on her routine, which is taking a lot of time. If we could just get her to go to bed without falling asleep in our arms and THEN putting her to bed, that would be great! Any suggestions?

She's Back!

So, Lo is pretty much back to normal. She's trying to climb and getting into things that she shouldn't be. We are still housebound but go to see Dr. B her pediatrician tomorrow and Dr. S her cardiologist on Wednesday! People have been great and I want to thank Shannon and Justin for the wonderful Chicken Divan and Brenda for Baked Spaghetti and Chicken!

We are still doing laundry and trying to get into a routine. Tomorrow Lola comes back and that should be interesting. I will update tomorrow after the appointment with Dr. B. Until tomorrow, enjoy these pics from the past few days! (Yes, she did have to have stamps on her foot!)

Home

We got home yesterday afternoon. Last night was a little rough and it took her a long time to settle down but Lo, John and I had a little sleepover in the living room. Trying to work on her routine today but John's parents are leaving this morning so it may be hard. I am going to be taking more and more pics as the weeks go on so I will posting a lot hopefully :O)
Thanks again for all the prayers! God truly does listen and answer! She is our miracle. Today is the Heart Walk in Charleston. We wish we could be there and wish our friends have fun! We will see them soon! Please also remember all the little ones down at MUSC that are fighting for their lives. They are all too cute!

Pictures from today

Here are some pictures from today and GUESS WHAT: we may be able to go home tomorrow! I don't want to jinx it but we are super excited!

Blanket finished

I can't wait to show her this tomorrow!

Day Four

We walked in to PCICU and found Lo eating eggs and grits this morning. She was so happy to have food! We also got to hold her! She is coming around to her old personality too! She has also eaten lunch and got her central line out. Dr Bradley is going to take out her chest tube this afternoon after he gets out of the OR. Then all we have to do is get her oxygen level to stay in the 90s on room air and we are good! I hope we will be out of here by Saturday but you never know. I will post pics later tonight of her eating and being a cheese ball! Thanks for all the prayers!
