Hospital: Tuesday

A is now off of his IV. We are still working on feedings. He is progressing much more slowly than anyone had anticipated, but he's progressing and that is what we are happy about. Of course, we are rarin' to get out of here. I think tomorrow is overly optimistic, but hopefully on Thursday we'll be headed home. That may be optimistic too, I don't know.

In better news, A laughed for the first time. He laughed at Mutti. She was the most hilarious thing he'd ever seen. Of course, he was the best thing WE'D ever seen. It was fantastic!

I am so sorry it is going so slow, but slow means good strong healing yes? Sending more love and light your way.

This is all great to hear. Sounds like A is really perking up if he's giving you laughs!!

I'm so glad to hear that he's laughing! What a wonderful noise.
I'm so sorry we've been out of touch and not keeping up with what's been going on out there. We are absolutely sending all of our prayers to a safe return home in the next day (or two).
Sending our love.
