We're Home!!



After almost a month in the hospital, we're home!! We returned home Sunday afternoon after Isabelle's last morning IV antibiotics. I felt like kissing the ground when we drove in our driveway.

Following are a few of the friends we met while at MUSC:

Rachel and Miss Mary got Isabelle ready to go home!


Conrad Williams, a pediatric resident, made sure all my questions were answered and advocated for Isabelle. He won a place in our hearts!



Adriene and Jenny, two of the nurses on the floor, came into our room for playtime with Isabelle. Izzy loved them both!


Jenny taught Isabelle "Up" and "Down" and showered lots of love on our girl.

Sadly we didn't get a photo with Jen, one of Dr. Bradley's PA's, and another amazing advocate for us. We'll have to get one next time Jen!

I'm grateful for the staff at MUSC and look forward to catching up with them, in a year, when we return for Isabelle's next open-heart surgery.
