Welcome home!

Ah, it's so good to be home and all together again! Logan has been doing great and Corbin is adjusting, sort of. Haha. Logan went to the doctors yesterday and will go back next week. They really want to make sure he is gaining weight. He has been doing very well with eating, there are still times he struggles but otherwise he's improving. He is on Lasix, a medication to help get rid of excess fluid. This is to help prevent congestive heart failure. Aspirin and a multivitamin. So the medication regime isn't bad at all.

He has a 24/7 on call nurse that works in the area, so it's comforting to know there is someone close by that can come check him out if we have any concerns that aren't 9-1-1 worthy. She will come to the house once a week just to check on him.

His chest incision looks good. There is no longer a bandage on it.
We still have to wait to give him a bath but I can't wait to see if he likes the water. Corbin loved it, and still does.

He has an appointment with the cardiologists on wednesday. I'm not sure exactly what they will be doing, but I'm sure and echocardiogram and hopefully we'll get insight as to what the future holds. I will update once we have that appt. Otherwise, all is well. We are so grateful to have him home.

  2. Glad to see Logan is getting better! Nothing will tear at heart strings more than an ill child. My children might be 12 and 20 ,but, some of the most memorable moments are when you hold them as babies. Hold your little ones close and enjoy every minute, before you know it they will want the car keys. lol. Happy for you guys!
