See You Later Alligator!



That's right....we're going home TODAY!! Bennett is our little hero. He has now officially joined the countless other little babies that have endured open heart surgery and is truly a different baby. I have never seen him smile and coo and eat as much as he has today! I think he knows he's going home not to mention he has a repaired heart! He had a good night last night, his lungs are clearing up and his O2 sats have been much better. They did a final echo and there is mild leaking of a valve on his left side which is considered normal after this type of surgery. All in all they are pleased and feel he is fine to go home!

Mike and I have been very pleased with The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. I would highly recommend it to anyone, heaven forbid they had to bring their child here. The staff is wonderful, the doctors are top notch and the hospital itself is just really nice. We are very thankful for all of Bennett's doctors and nurses here at CHOP for taking such good care of him!!

But as much as we loved CHOP, we truly hope that we won't see them later!!;) Once again, thank you soooo much for all of your prayers!! Now we are heading home and looking forward to seeing our girls!!!
