Being Home

It is so nice to be home. It is funny all of the things that I enjoy so much more after not having them for a week. Things like my bed, kitchen, my shower, etc.

I feel like we came home with a fourth child, a.k.a. Oxygen. Lynnlee will have to wear it around the clock for 6 weeks. It is a small price to pay to be home but it definitely is tricky to have. Lynnlee has a 50 foot leash to get around the house and she is constantly getting tangled. I worry about it wrapping around her when she sleeps. The portable tanks are huge and have a dolly to wheel them around. No more grocery shopping with the kids for now. After you put the car seat on the top of the cart, Lynnlee and the oxygen tank in the cart, there isn't room for groceries. Do you like the bungee cords around the concentrator? It rattled and was really loud so Marshall rigged it to make it quieter.



Lynnlee is so happy to be home and is doing well so far. She plays with her toys and James. She takes a good nap during the day and is ready for bed early in the night. She takes Lasix in the morning and at night to help drain the extra fluid in her body. Even though it tastes horrible, she is always really good to take it. She takes aspirin every day which she loves since it looks and tastes like candy. Now that it is cold and flu season we will be spending a lot of time at home so Lynnlee can stay healthy.

James has been so cute since we got home. He give me hugs frequently throughout the day and tells me how much he missed me. He was so happy to eat his cereal with Lynnlee this morning.
