Home at Last

We were finally able to come home today. Tricia and I did everything that was expected of us in order to come home. Hunter unfortunately failed his swallow test so they had to send him home with a feeding tube, which he'll be on for about two weeks before they repeat the test. He's also on just a little bit of oxygen because when he would get upset his oxygen saturation level would drop a bit so they put him on it just as a precaution. We've started giving him his shots to help his blood clot too. They're really easy to give, but it's hard knowing they hurt. We're just glad to finally be home though. We pretty much spent almost the whole month of May in a hospital so it'll be an adjustment, but a really good one, to be able to take care of Hunter on our own now.

I'm glad to hear that he's home. I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. What a nightmare!!! Hope it's all uphill from here
