The Most Important Post. EVER.

I can't believe I'm late writing this post!  I envisioned an "as it happens" post for when this day came, but like everything else along this journey, the best laid plans don't always work out.  The bottom line is RYAN IS HOME.  Did you see that??

RYAN IS HOME!

We left the hospital on Sept. 20 @ 1 pm.  After 148 days in hospital.  Not the longest stay in history, but a pretty rough one from what we hear.  There were tears, pictures, and stress but we finally got out the door. The amazing, wonderful Nancy even got her shift change so she could walk us down and see Ryan take his first breath of fresh air (mind you the entrance to Mt. Sinai isn't the most ideal place to take one's first breath but you take what you get.  We even took him through the Wendy's drivethru because we were STARVING by the time we got home. 
I only have a moment to write because both kids will be up shortly.  He's doing great.  We are managing the oxygen and the feeding tube well and he's sleeping most times he's supposed to sleep.  One thing we're waiting on is a poop. 

This is not my last post. As Ryan is still kind of a home patient, his road continues.  We've had a revolving door of nurses, oxygen deliveries, physiotherapist, nutritionist (next week)...

Gotta go.  Will write more later.   Maybe.
