Here's an example of why we were so happy to get her back to Winchester.
They already have a plan in place to *get her home*. Jeff went by last night to see her and have a meeting with one of her doctors (which, I must repeat, Dr. Lee *called to set up*). She's going to come home with the stuff for the tube, including a medicine pump to push in the leftover food and a monitor akin to the one she wears at the hospital.
She'll only need the monitor for the times when she's not *right* with us and being watched. So, maybe five minutes a day.;)
Jeff's got an appointment tomorrow morning to learn how to use the monitor. And if my bloody stupid cold would go all the way away, I could learn too. *grump to the nth power*
So...yeah. Mega-progress, and she's in a place where her dad gets stopped in the door to the NICU, 'cause one of the nurses wanted to tell him how glad she was to see Charlie again. Rock on.

I don't understand why they transferred her to the other hospital if all they did was give her a less interesting mobile and wanted to do that whole tube thing that she doesn't need. I guess that's the backside of modern medicine - "if it's not perfect, then we have to fix it, even if it's not going to change much but at least we got to do something and try something and then if it doesn't work, then oh well."
Glad to see you're feeling better again. I bet your cold will let up now that you know she's close and with good people who truly appreciate her AND you, and want the best for all of you.
