Carly set a new personal record for release time from the hospital, getting discharged from the PICU this afternoon. After all that she has been through she is a little tired but the improvement from the release of pressure in her head has been immediate. We are really lucky that we live as close to the hospital as we do because we were told that this, plus the fact that Christa and I understand how to closely monitor Carly, are the reasons why she was allowed to go home so quickly. As we walked home from the hospital we realized that it was exactly one year ago to the day that we were discharged from the hospital and made the same family walk home with our two day old daughter. It felt just as good as it did then.
Love, Brad
