I had good intentions of keeping everyone updated better. I started many posts but there never seemed to be enough time and when I came back to the computer what I had wrote had become old news. I will write more on Kaitlyn's courageous "heart" journey soon, but for now a quick update for all our loyal readers.
We are home, we came in last night. It all happened so fast. On Sunday we were told 5-7 more days and we left Wednesday. She is eating like a champ, Kaitlyn did all the hard work and earned us a ticket home!!! We snuck in and surprised everyone, it is great to be with the boys again. I have never missed anything or anyone quite as much as I missed them.
We have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!!!
This picture is from Monday! It was the first day that she started acting like herself. She started smiling again. Oh did I miss that smile! She is 100% tube free now. That feeding tube you see in the picture is history, she's eating great on her own!!!
WOW!! That is the best news! I have been stalking the blog waiting to hear some news and worried that no news might mean bad news. I am so relieved. Go Kaitlyn!!!
