HOOOORAY - Isabella is Home with Us


Isabella is finally HOME with us. She came home Thursday evening and what an emotional roller coaster that was.

I had called in the morning to see how her blood work had come out and it showed that her count had gone down. I knew that the determining factor of weather she could come home or not would be the evenings blood work so I did not get too excited at this point and she had all ready established a pattern of going up in the evening.
When we got to the hospital we were so excited to find out indeed it had gone down quite a bit- again so I knew and was excited that there was a great possibility that she could come home with us this evening.

We waited for a call from the DR. and waited and waited and waited.........................

The hospital tryed getting a hold of him and could not so we waited some more and waited and waited............... Finally my husband looked at me and said, we can only wait so much longer.

My heart almost came out of my mouth and I couldn't even speak I could only give him a shake of my head in agreement. Knowing I would be having to leave my Baby Girl once more.

I thought I was doing o.k. and managed to control my emotions up until the elevator doors closed. Out every tear and wail that had been held for six days finally were let loose. After it was said and done I felt horrible for the other couple who got in the elevator with us little did they know what they were getting into.

I cried all the way to the car. My poor husband was no were near as emotional as I was (always a given) but I could tell he was having a really hard time with it and for once had no consoling words to give me left in him.

Then we got the phone call. We were almost to the highway and about to get on it when the DR. called and my husband answered and handed me the phone. Big mistake - I couldn't even get a word out threw the sobs when I hear the DR. laugh and say turn around and go get your Baby Girl - She is waiting for you !
