Update

We are home, getting settled. My parents left Sunday, it was so nice to have them while they were here. I'm learning how to juggle our new feeding routine with my other responsibilities. We've started back to therapy this week. OT and speech yesterday, PT today. They of course are taking it easy on her, but it's good for her to get some things in. Aggie is still not eating well, but I am sure her tummy is still a bit sore, and probably swollen inside. Her temperament has been sweet as usual. God continues to grant us grace to do what we are called to. I've had some sweet friends bring us a meal or two. And Mike's squadron has also started a sign up list for a few meals. This is such a blessing to me! Very sweet!!!! And helpful to boot. I am finding myself feeling a bit tired toward the middle and end of the day, but I am thankful to be able to work hard through the day, and hit the pillow at the end. The hospital called me yesterday to "see how our stay was". I politely and vaguely recounted our pre-op experience, and noted a need for patient teaching upon discharge. There was a return call about 10 min. later wanting more details, someone new. I gave a as-mater-a-fact as possible answer, trying not to be sinful in my response. Today they called to let me know that the hospital has decided to buy another set of small laproscopic equipment so that in the future an infant will not be waiting 8 hours in pre op for the equipment they need for their procedure. So I am glad something good came of our less than ideal experience.

  1. Less than ideal is a good way to put it but I too am glad some good is coming from it.

    Thanks for the update- glad things are getting back to "normal."
