Home at Last

We got to bring Ryan home today. After a less than sleep-filled night in the hospital with him, I was very excited to be out of there. I began to understand why Garrett was so worn down after staying 2 nights!

Ryan's fever didn't come back, but his personality did. He was bouncing all over the place yesterday afternoon and this morning. The doctor said he looked great. He's on a dose of asprin every day for 6 weeks and has to follow up with her on Monday and a cardiologist the next time he's in town (comes twice a month). He'll have to see the cardiologist once a year for 5 years, but they really don't expect there to be any long term side effects. PRAISE THE LORD!!

We want to make sure to say thank you to everyone who was praying for Ryan (and all of us). It has been a trying week - we are exhausted and ready for some sleep! We has so many friends stop by and visit us at the hospital, send gifts, provide meals, & watch the other kids. We feel so blessed! I wish I was polite enough to send out individual thank you cards (I'm going to try), but if I don't get one to you...well...we'll just say the dog ate it! :)
