Super Bowl Sunday at Home? Really?

Ivey is going home tomorrow!

This surgery has definitely been better than the last. There have been no medical issues to deal with other than her pain. Her mouth is very very sore as well as her tummy. Pain medication is being administered every two hours to try and keep it as minimal as possible. Other than that, she is doing very well.

Welcome Home Little Ivey. I'm so happy to hear that all went well and that she's out so soon. I'm praying that the pain will go away very soon and that she'll recover ever quicker. She'll be so proud of herself, as I'm sure you guys are SOOOO proud of her as well!
Happy Super Bowl Day!!!!!

That is wonderful news. I have been in San Antonio the past week at a conference. Haven has kept me updated each day. God continues to answer our prayers.

Sending all of our love,
Monica, Morgan and Haven

I praise God your little wonder is home with you and her Daddy and little brothers! That is wonderful! I hope for the meds to do their trick and keep the pain at bay. Sorry for that part. But I'm so glad you are all back together.

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. I'll be honest, I was uncertain what life would look like once the boys left this home, once they had their own time, in their own personal sunshine. 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...
