I know I said I would update in the morning--but is it morning yet?
Par has been a perfect angel--he's been sleeping, eating, pooping--just like he was in the NICU--and he slept a long time during the night--we had to wake him up this morning! Rusty didn't sleep much at all--he kept "watch" over Par and me--making sure nothing happened to us. And me, well--I didn't realize how difficult it would be to take care of Par and feed him AND to continue pumping--I know it will get easier to manage as I start breastfeeding more and more (because then I won't need to pump). Par likes his home and his "sister" Tiffany (Tiffany refuses to acknowledge Par at this point).
Words can't express how thankful we are to God for leading us to Dr. Kays and Shands/UF--the nurses and staff made our journey easier to make--giving comfort, reassurance, and the occasional comic relief. Thank you for giving us our little boy to take home.
We continue to pray for Par's friends and praise God for their friendship and their progress.
Thank you for being a part of our son's recovery.
Love,
Liz, Rusty & Par

Glad you made it back safely and are getting settled in. I can't wait to see pictures of Par at home! I hope you are able to breastfeed exclusively soon so that you can ditch that pump.
Whew! Sooooooo glad you're home with your "little man." Now life truly begins...
Much love,
