Hey there.. we are home..and finally done with billing (with just 8 minutes to spare)...
We are soo tired.. I was at the hospital at 7 a.m. this morning, and we had a good day with Gracie girl. Poor baby has a hard time pooping.. any suggestions out there? Some of the nurses swear by prune juice, doesn't seem to work that well.. they do give her suppository's too.. geesh, she does not need my G.I. issues already!! (i know, TMI!)
Look at that cute face!!
We stopped by to see my niece and nephew on the way home.. my niece was expecting Daddy, so she was less than thrilled to see me.. broke my heart a little.. but then as soon as her brother got home & was hugging on me.. she couldn't stop giving me love. So, I understand she was expecting someone else.. and we 'surprised' her.. maybe like her mom & doesn't like surprises. LOL
We got home around 7:30pm..and honestly, there is SOOO much stuff to do at the house.. I can't believe it. I have some good friends that have agreed to come by & help, as well as my mom will come by tomorrow & we'll go thru all the clothes, that people have dropped off. And I have a very important lunch date tomorrow with Gracie's madrinha :) .. definitely looking forward to Not Your Average Joe's!!!!
We called in tonight to check on Grace & she's doing great. The pulmonary specialist was in today around 4pm, and looked her off..they are leaving her oxygen at between 50-75cc's of air flow at 100%.. it's like getting an extra 'whiff'.. that's what she'll be going home at. Just get her thru while she continues to grow & feel full with her feeds.
We found out our 'specialized' formula is going to cost $199.00/mo.. is that alot?? It sounds alot..but what do I know..
So, hopefully we'll be able to see a G.I. Specialist around here & get her on some more home formula in the next couple of months. We already have our appointment set with our pediatrician for next week. It's all coming together.
I had a nice chat with Dr. Morrow tonight.. she wished us well & gave us blessings for a great life with Gracie.. I will surely miss these people..I think I'm going to have a hard time with this 'good-bye' thing.. I am truly myself when I'm up there..they have brought the best out in me!
Okay.. my head is nearly weighing me down.. I'm so tired.
G'night friends!
Love,
pattie & gary, Gracie & max
