Yesterday Dahlia turned 5 months old. She has been in the hospital for all but two weeks of the time. On Monday we are finally going to be discharged! I am so ready to get out of here. Dahlia got her feeding tube out yesterday. I was worried about her being able to take all of those medications by mouth. However, she actually seems to like them and happily swallows them down, thank goodness! Today here PIC line was taken out and as of now she has absolutely nothing in or attached to her and all her stitches are out. It is so wonderful to be at this point in her recovery. There were so MANY times it looked like she wouldn't make it. I thought I would never get to use all those diapers or cute little outfits I got from her baby shower. I thought I would have to plan a funeral. Watching her come back from the brink of death, and every thing we have gone through has been life changing. We won't be able to go home yet; we have to stay in the area for three months. I'll take that any day over the hospital!

I see no feeding tube, so I guess that means that she's eating on her own now right? I can't wait to see that cute face in person again. I love her!
