Home At Last

Jordan had a good day yesterday (Thursday) and a great night last night, so this morning they discharged her straight from the PICU!! Normally there would be a day or so on the floor, but with a nurse at home it's just as good. We were in the front door by noon & it feels great to be here. I can't wait to get a great night's sleep in my own bed for the first time 9 nights! Maybe I can even sleep in this weekend -- perfect timing!

It was even sunny enough this afternoon (after a week of rain) for a spontaneous trip out to the local pumpkin patch with Avery & BFF Kate. Avery has had a long week herself, and on top of being tired she is being "clingy" for mom. We needed an afternoon out together! It's tough to be happy & healthy and not have the attention of Portland's medical world, let alone your own nurses to care for you each day. It's a good thing Jordan is willing to "share" some of nurse Robin & nurse Lisa's attention each day.
