We got home just before lunch today- a day earlier than expected. Gracie is doing fine with lesser pain meds- think she is surprising alot of people with how tough she is! In order to go in the van, she needs to lie flat and use two belts that thread through a special harness we buckle her into......I don't think we will be taking her out alot over the next few weeks, it's a little bit of a chore.
We used the wagon to get her out of the hospital. You know, just when I thought we were somewhat of a spectacle, we up the ante a little bit. Funny how people tend to stare a little as we go by.....
At home she lies flat in a wheelchair or on a bean bag- she had fun opening up a couple presents when she got here.
Thanks for all the prayers and care- it has been amazing and humbling to see just how many people are behind us, and just how God keeps showing up and doing miracles for this little girl. From the lowest place in the world (the slum Gracie was found in is now considered the poorest and most dangerous place in the world!) to the newest and fanciest hospital in the richest country in the world. Throw in one of the best doctors in the country who has taken quite a shine to her- what a miracle this little girl is, and what an honor to get to be part of it.
thanks all, and blessings!
