So, we got to hold our daughter today, and it was so good to be able to know what she looks like, what size she is, and what she sounds like. Mom was at the hospital all day, and she wouldn't leave (even for a doctor's appointment that she was supposed to be at). When she was going home last evening, she said "Well, we made it."
We did indeed.
Mom has been hurting more and more, and has been nearly unable to use her arm. She has started taking pain medication, which is a big deal for her. Mom has had a high tolerance for pain, and usually refuses medication that will affect her coherence. She was eager to have some relief.
We are now looking to July, and to some peace and quiet. I would imagine that Mom will be glued to Laurel like crazy.
