Hey Y'All,
We got the confirmation today that we are going to get to go home TOMORROW!!!
As of the time I posted the blog this morning, we had no idea of this news. Amy just happened to have run into the discharge nurse in the hallway and just plainly asked her what our deal was. She said that we were still on track for tomorrow. We got excited but decided to get confirmation before we started packing.
That is when it all started to fall into place. Our portable feeding equipment arrived, then our nurse put us on a feeding and medicine schedule for the remainder of our time. About 6 PM, the Doctor came in and confirmed everything.
They have already done the standard echo-cardiogram that is mandatory for cardiac kids that are about to discharge. We do not know the results of it, but considering that they have done two of them since his surgery, we fell fairly confident that everything will check out fine.
Oh...by the way, Amy did GREAT today when it was time to pull and place Maddox' NG tube. I am ashamed to admit it, but she did better than I did with my first time.
We are very excited but we still find it hard to believe that this day has finally come.
We want to take the time to tell all of you thanks for you prayers, thoughts, and concerns; thanks to all of the visitors, thanks for all of the financial assistance; and thanks for all of the support.
However, we still need the prayers, so please continue to pray for him to grow and stay healthy.
We will continue to update the blog as our trials and tribulations of being new parents of a "Cardiac-Kid" continue as we go home for the first time.
Your Friends,
Amy, Luke, and Maddox Dean
