Hannah was discharged from the hospital today! At day 9 post op, Hannah was free! This was beyond our wildest dreams. We thought she wouldn't be discharged until Monday, then we would have to stay for a week locally, and not get home until the second week of July. I love surprises like this! We have to stick around NYC until next week and get clearance from the doctor before we can fly home. It is so much nicer for her to lounge around the hotel. I think she is relieved to be out of there! She seemed to turn a corner over the weekend with her pain and mobility... And each hour seemed to get better and better and better!! She was moved out of ICU on Monday and did fabulous with the change. By this time, her personality was back in full swing. She started eating food, went potty like she needed to, was walking (although not well...) and was taking all her meds orally like a champ. From a hospital stand point, there wasn't anything else she needed. She just needs time to heal! We are still struggling with her blood pressure, but hopefully it will come down now that she isn't so stressed in the hospital. We got all her meds and medical supplies and came back to the hotel to chill with our family. Now that we have a light at the end of our tunnel, we are counting down the days until we leave. God continues to protect and provide miracles for our Hannah!
This was Hannah yesterday. She cried, moaned and groaned the entire time she had to walk. But, as soon as we left today, she walked to the car from the stroller with no issues at all. :) stinker!

OT got her up and playing. She loved these magnetic dress up dolls... Which reminded me I have an entire box of them at home.

Hannah was excited to leave!

In the car on the way back to the hotel. Woohoo! I'm so happy to have all of this behind me. It looks like we will have a month of our summer to play after all!!
