Getting ready to come home!

A lot of good news for today! Lauren pulled out her canular so many times last night that they decided just to take if off for good. She did NOT like having it on. She is doing perfectly without it.

She also did excellent with the nursing last night and this morning and the doctors are going to ween her off of the IV fluids and the tube feeding over the next few days.

So, all of this good news means that they are beginning to discuss COMING HOME! They won't say exactly which day yet, but I've heard from the nurse it could be as early as Wednesday if she keeps up the good work.

I'm at home right now under "nurse's order" to take a nap and rest. I've been awake and with her at the hospital for about 36 hours, just with a few cat naps here and there. The nurse told me I really should go home and rest because before we know it she will be here and then it will be hard to sleep!

I'll keep the blog updated on her expected homecoming!!
