We were moved up to 7C last night, and after a somewhat difficult night of feeding and holding Mary Clare about every hour and a half, we were just told that her chest tube and pacing wires will be removed today! Only one IV is remaining in her little hand! Whichs means that there is not much more keeping us here!! We may even go home TOMORROW!! Her chest stopped draining, the fluid in her lung has gotten better and she is eating well and feeling well!! I was holding her a few minutes ago and she was pulling up and standing on my lap. She is so happy and back to her usual sweet self.<\/p>\n
I think Mel is a bit disappointed about our quick return home, however. He was getting back into the old swing of things up on 7C, being “Mel.” He won’t even have enough time to get into serious trouble this time<\/em>! (I hope)<\/p>\n What a wonderful day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We were moved up to 7C last night, and after a somewhat difficult night of feeding and holding Mary Clare about every hour and a half, we were just told that her chest tube and pacing wires will be removed today!
