Homeward Bound!

Hello!

We received news this morning from the doctor that we were going to be able to go home TODAY! What wonderful news!

Julia's doctor decided that with the possibility of bad weather tomorrow combined with the fact that she is doing so well that we should go home later today. He said that for patient safety, they might have felt obligated to keep us until Sunday if the weather were to be bad tomorrow, so he cancelled the midnight antibiotic (he said that basically her 4 PM treatment would be good for 12 to 18 hours as it is, so not having the last one would not be an issue) and has written orders for us to be discharged today. WOOHOO!

We are ALL looking forward to being home, especially mom and dad! Of course, I'm sure mom and dad will learn quickly how to be parents WITHOUT nurses to help out!

One of these days I will have to post all of the hidden blessings that I have experienced while being here in NICU... and believe me, the nurses are a BIG part of that!

Have a glorious day / weekend! "See you" back in Pella!
