Need your prayers!

There is a HUGE chance of Emma coming home tomorrow morning. I spoke with her doctor regarding her spells and it seems the only time she has spells is during nipple feeds with a bottle. Her last true apneac spell was 3 days ago. Since then they have been due to bottle feeds. She is nursing well enough to nurse exclusively at home. Yesterday she said she would re-evaluate on wednesday and we would go from there. So far so good. Pray that Emma makes it through the night with no spells and that her doctor feels confident enough in emma's health to let her come home. We filled out the form for Emma's hospital pictures (they normally take the the day of discharge or day before) today. She will be having her hospital pictures taken in the morning. They also told us to be ready with the carseat installed "just in case". It's getting harder and harder not to get my hopes up! Praying for the best!

Woohoo!!! I know how excited I was when Patrick could come home - and that was a *very short* NICU stay.

Prayers! Hoping tomorrow is her first car ride! :)
