Home for Christmas?
We got a nice surprise this morning when the Pulmonary Doc came in and started talking about being for Christmas!  I was a bit taken aback but she was convinced that Aria could go home if we got the BiPap machine for home sorted.
So tonight Aria is trailing a home machine in the PICU and hopefully it will go well and we can get home on Christmas Eve! Â She did ok on the hospital one but the mask wasn’t very ideal, thankfully the home health company brought a bunch to try and I think we got the right one.
She seems much happier today, still napping a lot which is a good thing. Â Hopefully another decent nights sleep will help her improve.
Anyway Merry Christmas! Â Hopefully our next update will be from HOME.
