Audrey had a great day today. She was fed up with that tube being run down her throat for feeding and meds and has now downed her last 5 bottles and meds fully. She also pulled the NG tube out during her bath and we havent bothered putting it back in so we are hoping she keeps it up. Her heart rhythm was nice and consistent today as well without any issues at all. It was definitely a good feeling that all went well today considering the current plan is for us to take Audrey home tomorrow. We'll meet with the doctors in the morning and make certain all readings are still as expected and if so we'll be loading her up in the carseat that dwarfs her and taking her home. It's very hard to believe this day has finally come after having been in one hospital or another for the past couple months. We will be extremely nervous initially and it's hard to imagine that we'll sleep at all but I'm sure it will get easier over time. We'll have followup appointments with both the Cardiothoracic surgery group and with the EP Cardiology group next week and we're not yet sure of how often after that.
We really can't say enough about how great Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta has been throughout. All of the doctors and nurses and facilities have been excellent.
