DISCHARGE #1


Psalm 3:4 I cried to the Lord with my voice, And He heard me from His holy hill. 

Praise God! Logan was discharged from the hospital yesterday (11 June 2012). We spent all Saturday night, all day and night on Sunday and most of Monday doing Care by Parents. That's where they lock you in a room with your baby and when they return, if everyone is still ok, they let you go home. Well, mostly like that. Logan did great and we made it. Three quarters of the Binkley family is now in the Ronald McDonald House.

Just before we left the hospital

Rock On Guys. I'm Outta Here.
We are getting close with Leila too. She still needs to take all her feeds by bottle, which I think she has done in the past 24 hours. She also needs to learn to take a bottle with formula mixed in with the milk. She won't take it because the formula tastes so bad. Regardless, she needs the extra calcium and phosphorous, so we still have to figure something out. I think she had another head ultrasound today, so we pray to God that she still has good results there. I almost wish they would quit checking because I believe that she won't have anymore problems. She is still on a very small amount of breathing support, but we are told that she could go home with this type of support if needed, but again, I believe that she could come off the support if the right doctor will give her another try.

Long day. Sleep = good

Fell asleep with her hands up...

I love this picture. I have probably already posted it, but I want to post it again.
