Homeward Bound...

[Originally posted on our family blog - excerpt.]







On Tuesday, A continued to show signs of improvement - actively participating in crafts and activities in the children's ward. The doctor gave the OK to take her home in the late afternoon, and we left the hospital by 5pm - finally taking A and M home, after a week of being in the hospital. Rough first night - little sleep. Her head/neck still hurt her - keeping ice bags on them, giving her codeine at night, and trying to keep her calm... Today, she rested on the couch most of the day - she ate well, and we tried to get her to have a BM. Things feel like they're coming back to normal around here. A is still very needy and gets really upset easily about little things. In two weeks, we'll meet with the neurologist and decide what treatment method will be best for her - until then, it's a relief to have her home...
