Well, we were told today that it is a very good possibility that tomorrow we will be going home! You know, I feel like it is really time. I can't explain it, but it is like we are at the end of a good stay with extended family and you know when the end must come. When some of the nurses got the news they have already given her hugs today because they are not working the rest of the week. It will be interesting to see how today is and if/when we go home tomorrow how many tears will be shed.
Kasi has been doing well. She still fights nausea and lower abdominal pain, but she is on meds to regulate this. We will be doing a follow up with our pediatrician for all of her "stuff" at home and hopefully have minimal trips back here. As for her surgery and the repair that has been done, she is doing great! She has really recovered here from that. We know though that she doesn't have much strength at all. As good as she feels, her body has gone through a ton and even a walk to the cafeteria yesterday made her muscles sore. It will be a while for her to gain that back. The doctor said it could take months for her to feel on top of it again.
Over and over we have been remind of God's goodness. We focus on His goodness to us and showing others His strength in us through this. Today I am just sitting filled with joy with all the good things that are ours. We are very blessed and we know this. And today we celebrate this too. Kasi will have a Doppler study done on her legs today and we know God has used the wisdom of the doctors to correct her blood flow. We are excited to see the results! We know how well she feels and that in itself is a testimony to the greatness and success of this surgery. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. That is not a one time out flowing, but a continual flow! Let the river flow, right from the throne of God!
Be blessed today, and hopefully my next update will happen at home! Pray for her to gain weight and have enough intake, that will be the key!
We're so happy for all of you!!!! Praise God indeed!!! As we always say at Friendship church--God is good all the time--all the time God is good!!!!!!
