What a diffrence a day makes! We are doing the happy dance today, its the first day we have heard the words "home" as in "Emma should be going HOME in a few days!"
They want to try to put her on her home vent and see how she does the next few days, her xray is looking better. No more insulin so blood sugar is good. She is being slowly weaned off the 2 sedatives and she opened her eyes and looked at me today! Her home nurse DeLene came to see her and she opened her eyes and looked at her too. She looks much better. All pink and pretty. They had her hair put up in piggy tails when I got there it was so cute. The social worker set it up so I have rides through Sunday in case we stay that long.
I have to deal with the nursing company and see who our nurses aregoing to be, and make sure we have all the supplies we need. I hate to get my hopes up but it sounds like she really will be coming home. We also have to wait and see what her seizures do when she is off the sedatives.
Our friend Kara is in the hospital sick now, she is at a diffrent hospital than Emma though. All of those praying for Emma please add a special prayer for Kara too, she has an infection in her trach/lungs too. Poor kid. She cant seem to get a break lately.
Well that is all the news for now. Keep your fingers crossed that we will get to come home soon.
