Congratulations! I am so happy that you guys are home! Thank you for your suggestion about the wedge thing. If you really don't mind if we borrow it, I'd love to so that we can see if it works for him before we think about buying one. If this is okay, let me know on Grant's blog and I think I still have your number that Trista gave me, if not, I can get it from her again. I'd love to meet you all and get to know you better. I'll give you time, of course, to get settled in at home with all of your new equipment!

Welcome Home!!

WELCOME HOME!!!! I thought about you all day. Praying for your new, new normal at home again--and especially for your nursing situation. I hope you all sleep peacefully tonight! I echo Allison's comments...CALL ON US when you need us.

Yay! I'm praying that your first night home again goes smoothly, and that everyone gets a good night's sleep--except the nurse: I'm praying that she's amazing and was worth the wait to come home. :)

Y'all have a good night!

And Sometimes Feeding Your Kiddo Looks Like This...

A simple sentence. No one said it to me in the beginning, but boy did that tube cause a lot of chaos. The NG tube graduated to the G-tube which morphed to a GJ- tube…. A brief history of Ivey's feeding tubes: *The NG tube was in place the first time I ever saw my daughter in the NICU.  My only memory of her without a feeding tube is them placing her in my arms immediately following her birth. *The G-tube, well, that is a story within itself.  That decision did not come lightly.  Another hole in her.  Another decision on our plate, but not really on our plate, it was apparent it was a medical necessity for her survival.  Literally to give her a chance to live.  A permanent decision.  A 5am panic attack in the Scottish Rite elevator that happened to coincide with Dr. Meyers arriving at the hospital at the same time as me.... Our intersection in the elevator set the stage for the years to follow. From that point on, he knew I was a little nuts and a lot...

Sibling Secret Sauce

Siblings of kiddos with disabilities are amazing humans walking amongst us. They live a life, most often, in the shadows of their sibling who simply needs "more". More time. More direct attention. More of more. We have now come to a fork in our road. Our boys are young men, and, our daughter is a young lady.

We found out quickly once Knox left for college his freshman year what that would look like. And then, when Walker left, we knew what life would feel like in their absence. There was too much space. Ivey felt it. We get many compliments about the relationship the boys and Ivey have with one another. Hints here and there that, maybe, Matt and I had some secret recipe to parenting a household with a child that is very medically complex and a very complex communicator. This is what I can tell you - there is no re...
