The river is still flowing....(thanks Kathe and Happy Birthday Noor!) Hopefully Edison will be home by this weekend and we'll have nursing starting on Monday. He had a tough day yesterday with some feeding, g-tube, stomach acid issues, but they seemed to have resolved. The funniest thing happened yesterday. After spending almost 60 hours in the hospital I was about at my wits end. Right when I hit a wall Amy, a family consultant came by to visit. Her support and timing brought out the tears that had been building for days. At the time I was holding Dinky up on my shoulder and all of a sudden, as I was sobbing my little heart out, he takes that opportunity to do his first real laughing. Not just a laugh, but a giggling FIT. It truly was hysterical. I looked over at him and he just had this little grin on his face with a sustained laugh and intermittent squeal. It stopped me in my tracks and my tears turned to happy tears quickly. He truly is an amazing little being.

It was almost as if Dinky was saying, "mommy you're so silly for crying don't you know we're headed back home?". Bless him and bless you and Martin. I hope everything goes well in getting your little angel back home.
Love, Sue
Hi, sweet things. It's been a few days since I have had access to the blog, so I have just caught up on things. I am in Brian's office, and I just had to explain to him and his colleagues that my tears were not all for sadness. Because I was laughing between tears, they must think I'm more than a little bit crazy!
Our little fellow is an amazing little being--and so are you! You referred to your "little heart." I beg to differ. Your heart (and Martin's too!) is awfully big! love....

Hey sweetie! Dinky knows when to make his mama laugh. :)
Hoping you are all together at home soon.
I LOVE YOU!
