Annie is Home!

Annie was discharged today around 4:30pm!  Getting her in her wheelchair wasn't as painful as I thought it would be for her, and she's tolerating her chair pretty well, fortunately. 

Her valium and lortab are keeping her pretty sedated, so she's mostly just been sleeping today.  A couple hours after getting her home, she did wake up having a grand mal seizure which we were VERY surprised to see.  But it has been a couple months since her last big grand mal, so she was probably due for one soon anyway.  We're just hoping she doesn't have any more any time soon. 

She chewed up her lip again really badly with the grand mal seizure, making her lip bleed again. And shortly after her seizure she vomited again.  She vomited a few other times today, but we aren't quite sure if that's due to starting her feeds too fast, the meds irritating her stomach, or secretions pooling in her throat causing her gag reflex. 

So we'll be keeping a close eye on seizures and vomiting, but we're glad to have her home and be together as a family tonight.  Thank you so much for all the love and thoughts and prayers from everyone.
