HE'S HOME

First, I want to thank all of you who left such kind and uplifting comments on my last post.  They meant so much to me and my family.  Your prayers were certainly heard, as our Grand Boy was released from the hospital last evening.

The spinal tap results did not show any problems and the areas of concern that caused the need for hospitalization appear to be within normal limits now. 

It was a frightening time for his parents and family, but with the work of the wonderful hospital personnel and the grace of God, he is home with his mom, dad and Big Sister.

Here he is, being held by my husband last evening---for the first time in several days.

Our house seems very still today.  Just me and the cats.  The liveliness of The Grand Girl is absent.

We had kept her since the hospitalization of her brother on Saturday, plus she was with us last week for a couple of days right after the baby's birth.

She was very good and easily entertained.  She keeps me moving, that's for sure, but she also keeps me laughing.   We had lots of time to play with the water hose and her "riding toy" and blow bubbles and color and go out to breakfast with my Monday Morning Breakfast Group and shop at Walmart  AND we even watched The Wizard of Oz movie---she loves it so.

So today, I'm gonna catch up on a little rest and put away the craft supplies from her projects. Yesterday afternoon, she made "cards" for several people and had a ball "gluing and cutting".  She was working like crazy, and had cranked out seven cards when we received the call that the baby was being dismissed from the hospital.  We just packed up her cards and all of her other belongings, and a little dinner I had thrown together and promptly headed to their house.

It's nice to be "back to normal" for a bit----we hope it's for a LONG time!!

Thanks again for your prayers-----they certainly worked.

Dana I am so sorry that it has taken me this long to catch up with your wonderful blog. You have been through quite a scare. It is so frightening when such tiny babies have to go throw spinal taps. I am happy for you that he is home. I will be following from here on, and I am just catching up reading your older posts.

[Pat]

Praise the Lord, Dana! I am so happy that all turned aout well --I was so worried.

Enjoy that little blue bundle of joy!

Hugs, Pat

Dana - I am just now reading both of these posts...I read on facebook about the baby being admitted to the hospital and my heart just dropped. Came straight over here and saw your last post. Can't imagine how scary that must have been - you and your family are in my prayers. Thank God he is okay. Rest up so you can take care of both those darling little ones. Sending loving hugs your way...Nancy
