Recovery

Day 120
Weight: 5 lbs 5 oz

The surgery could not have gone better! He was in and out of surgery in about an hour and a half. We never saw him on the ventilator. He came off before we were allowed back in the room. I'm SOOO happy that he didn't spend much time on it. I might have fallen to pieces if I saw him on it again.
The iv is gone. The stitches look great. He is back to eating all of his bottles again. He's sleeping like he's never slept before. (If only he would stop confusing his days and nights!)
Tomorrow I will "room in" with Samuel in one of the NICU rooms. Essentially, I get to do all of Samuel's care just as if we were at home. Then if all goes according to plan, we will go home on Wednesday!!!! The oxygen tank will be delivered to our house on Tuesday - and that night we will be taking the CPR class that we have to have before discharge.
Our last two hurtles are the eye exam on Tuesday and the car seat test (not sure when they will do that.) I'd REALLY like a better result with the eye exam.....

I'm a happy camper.
