We couldn’t believe it the day had finally come we were going home….we had almost forgotten how it was to be together as a family….5 1/2 weeks of NICU life is not easy….Stetson was scheduled to receive his last dose of seizure medication on September 8th so his Dr asked if we are ready to take him home and we said ABSOLUTELY!! We were scared on how much extra care he will take and will we be able to care for him? He was under nurse care for the last 38 days….but we were just so so ready to go home!! I spent Saturday night with him so they could teach me how to do his feeds….they sent a suction machine and feeding pump home with us…. We had a great team of Drs and nurses and we know they always did their best and cared so deeply for him!! Thinking back one of the things that still brings tears to my eyes is how many prayers were said for Stetson….Our church family stood behind us like an army praying for us everyday….we prayed for Stetson every day, our friends prayed for him, by his bedside, in the waiting room, sometimes stranger joined in as well, we praying together in the solitude room, in the hallways, strangers messaged us saying they are praying for us….all we wanted is for Stetson to be healed and God has been faithful every step of the way and has healed him in so many ways! Many of his therapists don’t believe he’s been diagnosed with HIE and cerbral palsy! When we left the hospital and headed home….i cried tears of Joy all the way home….I know of so many parents that never got to bring their child home but somehow God in his great love has chosen Stetson and has great plans for him….and I’m so thankful I get to have front row seats!
