home
Surprise, surprise, surprise.
We are home from the hospital.
We had a better day yesterday than either The Wife and I imagined possible. Chalk another one up to the strength, tenacity, and just plain stubborn will of The Boy. He truly is an amazing creature.
By mid afternoon he was totally off oxygen and breathing regular room air like the rest of us and was a tired and slightly crankier version of his regular self. The hospital had no reason to keep us. The night shift nurses came on duty at 7:00 and harassed the doctor on duty until he agreed to discharge The Boy and send us home. We have been home since around 10:00 pm.
The worst is over, but we still have several days to go before we completely clear this hurdle.
We are home, we are still very tired, but we are very happy.
On this day I much for which to give thanks.
