Our baby girl is finally home! Mary Grace was released from the hospital today around noon. She is feeling better. She did develop pneumonia and is being treated with antibiotics. Katie and Joe are so happy to be home also. They really wanted to take a nap this afternoon but Mary Grace wanted to play. The doctors are still going to finish running the test needed to officially diagnosis Mary Grace's lung problems. She has to get over the pneumonia first before they can do anymore test. They will have to go back to New Orleans maybe sometime this week to finally do the lung function test we have been waiting for. Mary Grace was sent home with oxygen and will have to sleep with it at night for a long time. That is OK, she sure looks cute when she wrinkles up her nose to put the probe in. She has learned to not play with it and leaves it alone. Hopefully, the doctors will get the ball rolling again with the test Mary Grace needs; and soon we can breathe easily that Mary Grace is on a road to recovery with the correct medication to assist her in her journey with the lung issues she will have. I will post when Katie and Joe get more information. It may not be for a couple of days because the doctors won't do anything else until Mary Grace gets over pneumonia. Please continue to keep Katie, Joe and Mary Grace in your thoughts and prayers. They have been such strong and vigilant parents. Mary Grace is one lucky little girl to have them. We are one lucky family to have Mary Grace!!
