Aulay, Day 80

He wasn't sure about his car seat.

The discharge of a preemie from the hospital isn't a single event, but a process. That process is designed to assure the medical staff that the infant can survive and thrive outside the hospital, and it prepares parents to take care of the baby on their own. 


In the process of Aulay's discharge, yesterday he passed his breathing/sleep test. Last night he had his car seat test and passed. He had to stay in the car seat for 90 minutes and keep his heart rate and breathing within normal limits. He also had another eye test yesterday and the results show that his eyes are fine. Today he has the final ultrasound on his head. 

Today I'm creating an e-blast for a client and meeting with another client. As always, my heart is in the hospital with Aulay. Once again, thanks to all of you for your prayers, well wishes, and encouragement. This journey with Aulay would have been so much more difficult without all of you!
