Marie is home

Today's big news is that Marie was discharged from her hospital, and is recovering back at home.  To be sure, she has a long road to recovery ahead of her... but she's ecstatic to be sleeping in her own bed again!  (And Kirk will be glad not to have to travel between two hospitals multiple times every day, though it was a small sacrifice.)

From Caley's world, today brought some more small encouraging news.  She went off of dopamine, which means she can maintain her own blood pressure appropriately.  Her glucose levels are pretty stable now.  And tomorrow, the doctors may even try to remove her from the ventilator if she is breathing okay.

Please say a prayer for strong baby lungs!

  2. Thinking of you guys and happy that mom is home and that baby Caley is making strides, if small forward. You're both amazingly strong people and I know you've created a fighter.
