Prior to reading this Blog post, I sai...Whitney....<br />Prior to reading this Blog post, I said a silent prayer for little Sunni last night. That her vomiting issues would simply be some virus or bug which will swiftly subside. Being a CDH survivor myself, I feel such an incredible kindred connection to these children!! ;)<br />Sorry, but I did not have time to read this Blog post in full.... I needed my sleep!! So now I read it.... ;-D<br />Oh, I did not realize that you were still in the hospital!! No fun!! Hugs to you!! ;)<br />I understand your feelings. Completely. I am certain that my Mom could have related to every single emotion while I was in the hospital. I, too, have an older sibling. ;)<br />--Raelyn <br /><br />Mary Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005199691237610718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3688857526446988837.post-57625606127327186752013-01-30T15:00:44.256-08:002013-01-30T15:00:44.256-08:00Whitney, yes to what Abby said.

I would not have believed that when we were in it. But Sam will be 2 on Friday and he has spent 6 months in hospital... that's 25% of his life and yet it sooo doesn't define him or us. <br /><br />Maybe I told you this before but I used to give myself from the parking lot to the ICU - down a couple of long hallways and through the main lobby of the hospital - to be really, really mad. In my head I would rail against the whole CDH machine. Then I opened the doors to the ICU and put my big girl pants on. It's okay for you to struggle - who wouldn't?! And it's okay to be sad and mad and oh-my-word I cannot imagine how much you are missing home and your boys. AND you can do this thing, Whitney. I know it. <br /><br />Praying for you. <br />Corinne<br /><br />p.s. Samuel had 3 months of Enoxiparin injections as well. I remember those little bruises. Sam's nurses actually started a chart to show where the last shots were given so that they could alternate spots. :( Hang in there.

I would LOVE to talk to her! <br />Some day down the road, though, (and I can promise you this) you will look back on all of these shenanigans and it will all be a blur. Lil' Miss will be all settled in at home, and her somewhat rocky start will be something that sticks with you forever but only creeps into your mind every so often (for me, it's bedtime after everyone is asleep). <br />I know that seems light years away, but you'll get there. Big hugs and big prayers.<br /><br />And I am dying for that pink bow :-)<br />Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403235517083306931noreply@blogger.com
