Grace Discharged

The midwife told us we were likely to be allowed to leave today! After a seemingly endless procession of doctors, nurses, counsellors, etc came to see Grace and Megan and sign off on our discharge papers, we were finally allowed to check out at about 2pm.

It was a long hot drive home, and fortunately Grace slept most of the way. She only woke up as we turned into Kiama. It’s a little scary having a newborn here, but it’s great to be home! Grace has done remarkably well so far – much better than even the doctors had hoped for, given her heart condition.
