WE ARE HOME!!!

We checked out of CCHS today around 4pm! Sam clapped all the way home in the van while listening to stories. I think he was very happy to have some fresh air when we went outside too! We met many nice people who helped to make our stay very comfortable during our three weeks at Children's Care. We are so thankful for the prayers and support this last month! Please continue to pray for Sam's health. He is definitely a happy boy when he is feeling well and it is so nice to have his smiles back!

Change of plans...

After a 2 1/2 hour meeting last Monday with Sam's surgeon, pediatrician and various others we have decided to wait with the g-tube surgery. We came to this conclusion because we are not sure that it is the right time of year to have this done. The feeling was that during this intense cold/flu season, the peds floor is very busy and they might not have enough staff to meet Sam's needs. Also, we would like to have hime fully recovered from this past illness before beginning a new challenge. We will discuss the surgery again in two months. So, the GOOD news is that we should be able to bring Sam home by the end of next week!!! We are so excited to think that we may all be home together again. The staff at CCHS has been wonderful, but it's not home and we are anxiously awaiting our move back to the east side of town!
