Home Sweet Home for Paige, Kellye, & Nate!

Paige was released from the hospital today after a month and 3 days of ups and downs! The excitement in Nate's voice over the phone was unmistakable. He is really appreciating the simple things. Tonight, he ran out to grab food from their favorite Mexican restaurant and told me how great it was to be in a familiar place. He was excited to head back home and share dinner with Kellye.


They've got her all set up with her continuous tube feedings at home, and they've propped up pillows underneath her mattress to ensure proper digestion. They'll be heading back to the doctor's office on Friday to make sure there's been no drastic changes in her labs, weight, and overall condition. They still face a long road ahead, and transplant is still 'on the radar,' but for now the goal is to gain weight and remain stable. Thanks for all of your prayers; I know they've all felt them. I now ask for your prayers for Paige's stability so they can continue to remain at home and try to reestablish their usual day-to-day routines.

Here's the latest photo I've received of sweet baby Paige. It's from her little hospital bed, soon after waking up yesterday. She looks wide awake, huh?
