We are home. Emery is on antibiotics and wearing a mask when she goes to the doctors office for visits, and NOT going out in public until she has a clean bill of health. Even Emery is pretty 'done with' hospitals for the time being. Our hospital does not have a designated pediatrics ward and the iv insertion was just plain horrific. But she wasn't on oxygen very long, was able to be responsive to the medications and is very happy to be back home.
I am beyond grateful that it was all caught at her routine post op visit and it didn't progress to being life endangering. And I am grateful that my sons got to come hang out in the hospital during the day. It was nice not to be the one solely entertaining a 5 year old who is already tired of being in the hospital:) She loved playing with her brothers in the hospital, and they loved going to the hospital cafeteria. So it was great all the way around.
Here's hoping for smooth sailing from here on out!
It is such good news to read that Emery is doing well and is out of the hospital. I have been reading about her and praying for her for more than a year now. What a blessing she must be to you and your family. May God continue to heal and bless this precious child.
