So today during rounds was the first time that Dr. Brian Hackett, Lauren's NICU Doctor, named a possible "end-date" for our stay here in the NICU. If Lauren has continued to gain weight as of her official weigh-in tonight (midnight), we'll get to take her home tomorrow--Wednesday, 28 July 2010!!! It's going to be weird to be able to go down the hall to see Lauren, vs. a 40 minute drive each way to SLCH. But we'll absolutely take it!
We do appreciate everyones thoughtful cards, emails, and gifts we've received over the last 16 days...as well as the spontaneous meals and yard care. We truly have outstanding friends and support, and we are sincerely appreciative to you all...
Keep your fingers-crossed for Lauren's weigh-in tonight and sufficient weight gain to bring her home tomorrow.
I wish I could be there to witness the homecoming. I can't wait to see Lauren in a month. Congratulations on being able to take her home. Here's to a good weight gain!
