Sarah's Home!
Sarah was able to go all Sunday night without oxygen,praise the Lord, and,thankfully, after watching her most of the day Monday, they decided she could go home! We were able to leave around 4:15 or so and it is so nice to be home, though we were exhausted yesterday. It was nice to sleep in our own beds! She has had to do breathing treatments every 4 hours since she has been home, though last night they let her go about 6, so I wouldn't have to wake her up in the middle of the night. She has done great today, though she is very tired. Joshua and Abby have had Catechism Camp at church this week, so that has been helpful and given them something to do. Mom watched Sarah this morning while I took them, signed the girls up for ballet and went to some of the Women's Bible Study. It was very good and and encouragement to me to get to hear it! I left early from it to get back to Sarah and give her her next breathing treatment. As of tonight, she is now on an "as needed" basis for the treatments, so hopefully things will go smoothly. We are going to see her pediatrician tomorrow and see how she is progressing. Josh and I have both been very concerned about her and it was very encouraging to us to see her skip down the hall today, singing real loud and giving us glimpses of her normal self, with her cheerful smile! I think she is getting well!
She was not exactly cheerful while she was in the hospital- she was almost a completely different person- she is normally SO cheerful and fun to be with- the answer to almost everything we asked her or wanted her to do while she was there was NO! The other times she has had to be on a steroid she was the same way. We are very thankful to have our cheerful daughter back!
One thing she DID like was seeing her grandparents and Joshua and Abby!
and being told she could go home!!
Here she is with one of her last breathing treatments at the hospital-
Thank you again for all your prayers on her behalf! We really appreciate it and are thankful to God that she is ok and able to come home!
