Final Countdown...Going Home!

It's the final countdown! Praise God we are going home today! We are going full circle the neo that will be discharging us was one of the noes from the beginning of our journey. He was the neo the day I broke down with tears of frustration from not being able to help Sky. He was the neo who had to tell us that same day in rounds that one more thing would likely push Sky beyond his limit to live and he was the neo to offer condolences at the first set of rounds after Sky had passed. (The neo who was with us when Sky passed stopped by to see Keller yesterday. He hadn't seen him since the week Sky passed. So now all of our favorite noes have seen our big, strong boy.) This morning when the neo popped in he asked us when we wanted to go home. I replied, "Now" & Micah said, "Yesterday." The neo said, "I'm glad I'm here to discharge him." and now we can't wipe the grins off of our faces! This has been such a long journey, one we're excited to close and begin ours as a family at home. Don't tell the boys! We're surprising them! Pictures to come.... Lots of Love, Shelly
