Recovery

Going home on Monday!

After another good day of recovery, I'm finally feeling better to write in the journal! I had a good night's sleep and have been able to manage through the pain today with the help of some lovely drugs and several naps. I've gotten up a few times and walked around. We visited Maggie in the NICU, but didn't get to hold her because she was undergoing light therapy (to get her billirubin levels stable).

The doctor's say that I get to go home on Monday, which will be nice, because I miss our little Cece. She's doing so great this week and has been a good girl for her grandparents.

My folks brought Cece to visit last night and we showed her pictures of Maggie. She kissed each and everyone one! She is too little to visit her in the NICU (siblings have to be 2), so I think the pictures helped her understand what is going on.

The next month is going to be hard on our family, but I think we'll be able to get through it. I just want Maggie to do well and get strong so she can come home with us as soon as she can.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. We certainly feel so blessed to have your support.

Bridget, Jeff, Cece and Maggie
