My God is good.

Allthe time is He good!! :o)

I received a phone call yesterday afternoon from a nurse practitioner from the Hospital. When someone from the hospital calls my cell phone it comes up as "unknown" so, naturally, I didn't answer it! well She left a VMail and I just checked it today around 12:00 p.m. and in her message she said she wanted me to call her back so we can discuss options for when Reagan comes home!!!! So I immeditely called he back. Well, another NP answered and said she wasn't around and was on a different floor so I left my work number with her and she said she would call me abck when she came back up. Every phone call between then and when she actually aclled me I flipped out thinking it was her. I was soo anxious to hear what options I had for Reagan to come home! She finally called me back and said the 2 options were:
1.To keep Reagan in the hospital and continue her P.O. feeding (bottle feeds) which could take several weeks..
or
2. Go ahead and insert a Gastronomy Tube. Which, if I chose this option She would possibly have the surgery done by the end of this week and giving recovery time, could go home next week!!!!!!

I was exstatic to hear that my little girl could come home next week! I told her I was ready to go ahead with the G-tube if it meant she could come home earlier! She said she would talk to the surgeons and they would call me soon and let me know what date they decided on to perform the surgery and to get my consent for it. So I am patiently waiting that phone call now.

I called Reagan's bedside a little while later just to see how she was doing and see how well she ate with her bottle...it wasn't great, BUT they stopped her phenobarbital ysterday!!! :o) The nurse said they took phenobarb levels and b-c she was doing soo good they decided to stop it! I was told she would be on phenobarb for 6 months!!! So to hear that they stopped it completely shocked me, but I was excited! They are also continuing to weane her methadone! Last I heard it was at .5...so she is getting close to be off of that as well!

My little girl is growing so fast. I was gone for 1 week and when Chad and I got there last Friday she was so big! Thankfully my aunt volunteered to drive me to bham this Thursday! and Chad & I are going up for the weekend as well! I cant wait to see her again! :o) I just love her sooo stinking much.

If you could continue to pray for the surgery and that the date they chose is in God's perfect timing and that His will be done. Also that the Dr.'s will have nimble hands while working on my sweet angel! I am eternally greatful for everything that has happened in the past 2 motnhsin Reagan's life and mine.

Once again, To GOD be the Glory forever and EVER!!! AMEN.
