Coming Home!!!

We made it! No spells for 5 days! We've got the discharge orders, and we're taking our little baby home tonight. Just writing that started the tears of joy and relief flowing. I'm a little suprised - I'm not usually a happy crier. :)

After 71 days in the NICU Samuel Walter Johnson is coming home!

Taking after his father, Samuel is quite the connoisseur of the finest pacifiers the Mercy NICU has to offer.
