We're Back!

Miss Millie was released from the hospital today after lunch.  Hallelujah!

Last night was touch and go...so much that I ended up getting to sleep for only 1 hour.  But the lack of sleep was worth it...I made sure Mills was propped up and watched that O2 sats machine LIKE A HAWK.  My inner OCD characteristics came out for a good cause last night!  I was dead set on keeping her airways open and hiked her trunk up again and again in that bed...no slumping allowed!

Since we never had to use oxygen, we were cleared to go home, and boy, it feels so nice.  We are still getting back in touch with our home routines, but just being in familiar surroundings is good medicine for us all.

As we completely catch our breath, we're snackin' on a big batch of homemade guacamole (Millie's favorite!) and watching the Wheel of Fortune and are marinating in the fabulousness of just being together in our home sweet home.

Thanks to everyone for all of your sweet words, thoughts, prayers, & patience as we recover.  I plan on knocking a bunch of work stuff out tomorrow, so hopefully I will get to you if you need me to! 

Much love,
Kate
