We were discharged this morning and made it home just after lunchtime! Mary Clare is doing very well and has been napping most of the afternoon. I think she is glad to be back home and in her own crib…on her belly!<\/p>\n
As I walked out of the hospital with tears in my eyes, I felt such an overwhelming sense of relief. What a year it has been. In January, we had no idea what was ahead of us. We soon found out that we were having a baby girl, then later began our long journey with HLHS. Now, here we are in December of the same year having witnessed the birth of our Mary Clare and been with her as she faced the most difficult year of her young life. Two open heart surgeries, hundreds of hours of doctors appointments and a much stronger family later, we are home and well and so ready for all 2008 will bring. I couldn’t ask for a better Christmas! God is good!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
