Changes

We are learning to adapt to many changes through this process. We finally settled into our "permanent" home away from home while being in Michigan. The schedule of our daily life has changed so much..the little things in life that we took for granted are the things we are missing. Being so far from the girls is an adjustment, along with the highs and lows throughout the day with Mallory. It's a learning process for all of us. We are so grateful for being able to be at a hospital where we know Mallory will have the very best care and that we both have the love and support of each other and the prayers and love from family and friends.

Mallory is changing herself...we spent about 5 hours Monday night with her wide awake looking around at mommy and daddy and holding our fingers. Pretty exciting because she has been sleeping during our visits. The nurses and physicians on staff keep reassuring us how great she is doing, which makes us feel more at ease. The surgery is scheduled for Wednesday morning. Another change, as they call it in the PTCU she will become part of the "zipper club". As for today were spending the day admiring our little grinch.
