Yesterday (Thursday) we had just went down to the playroom to let Taylor get out of his room and James come down to the playroom and says Taylor we gotta go back to your room, their discharging us! We were so surprised. We hadn't seen the doctor that day, Taylor hadn't pooped since we had been there, and he had thrown up that day. All of that sounds bad, but other than that he had been a star patient and so they let us come home. So once we got home and Taylor had food he was used to, he ate like a pig, pooped on the potty, played a little and then went to sleep and slept for 10 hours. It is true, there is no place like home and maybe the best medicine was to be at home. James and I both slept like logs!! It was wonderful.
So now might be the harder part. We are supposed to watch his play to make sure he doesn't hurt himself for about 3 weeks!! Everyday that will get harder and harder as he will feel better and better. We had to hide all tricycles, riding toys, his punching bag, etc. He is also not supposed to swing the bat, which he loves to pretend things are bats and hit balls with it.
Taylor is doing so good! It's amazing how tough kids are. If you didn't know what he had been through, you would be surprised. Because when you look at him and see him smiling and walking around you wouldn't know he had just been through heart surgery 5 days ago.
Thanks for all the prayers!! Our prayers, once again, have definately been answered.
