These are the only pictures I took today. We really didn't do much worthy of pictures today. This breathing exercise was the most exciting/interesting thing all day. Otherwise we played games, read books and practiced in our workbooks. We didn't get to leave the room at all. Physical therapy came and we played in the bubbles again. The doctors had very little to say to us this morning. Just that we will stay the course with the IV's and see what happens. Of course I am completely thrilled that we are going home tomorrow. I am very nervous about giving IV medication myself at home, I've done it before so why am I sweating it now? This PICC line is working beautifully and even seems to stay tucked neatly into her little band when we're not using it. So I am in a better place than the last time we had a PICC. Come on Michelle, you can do this. Meaghan looks great. She sounds great and is able to do so much. I thank God for all of that. All of the prayers for healing and strength are being answered. My perfect angel is fighting and beating, against the odds, TWO nasty "mean bugs". From the day she was born she's been proving over and over again that she is here to stay. She likes to keep it interesting, never a dull moment, but that's just it, Meaghan LOVES a challenge.
Along those lines, among many other things we've tried this week, Meaghan learned to spell our last name. Now she writes her first and last name on all her works. That is no small feat, ours is a very difficult name for adults to learn and while she was "sick" in the hospital, she did it!
Ok, check back tomorrow, we should be home. Who knows what bringing our family back together again will be like.
God Bless
I'm glad Sunday was better! I know that getting hugs from your boys will make you feel better too!
ReplyDeleteI know you can manage the meds. You do a fantastic job and are great with all of that. You really are SUPER MOM!
Tell Meaghan she does a really good job if she can spell your last name! I still can't spell it without making sure I get it right! It is a very difficult name to spell!
Call me if you need to talk! Love you and miss you!

Yeah! So glad to hear that you are going home tomorrow. Sounds like the days have been a bit easier though I'm sure it's a challenge staying in the room so much. The boys will be happy t see you and Meemaw and PopPop may be ready for a break too. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll do great with the meds again this time. You have become quite the physicain's assistant.
Way to go Meaghan with our last name, I remember it taking a while. Most of my friends still can't spell it.
Catch up with you soon! Much love, Janet.
