Home sweet Home

Late Friday afternoon we were released from the hospital and decided to stay out in Palo Alto for an extra evening to make sure all was well with Luke.  He did great throughout the night, so we packed up and were home late Saturday evening.  

We were all so very excited to be back home after two weeks and most importantly that Luke did not have to have open heart surgery at this time.  The only difficult part now is the uncertainty of the time frame before he has to go back into the OR and of course the more you know medically the more you are concerned with the what ifs.  It's so easy for some to say, well trust in God and don't let your mind go there.  However, the reality of it is we are imperfect and the mind likes to try and take over.  So we are praying that the God takes away the fear for being worried about Luke and that he gives us peace to enjoy each moment until then.  

Luke had a great day out on Sunday with our wonderful neighbors (who are like our family). He was in his Jeep racing Ray who was in his golf cart.  Then he went on to play with Sandi.  You would of never known he was in the hospital just two days prior.  We pray that he continues down this path of recovery.   He said he misses his friends, so I told him not to worry mommy will have our social calendar booked with friends in no time at all. :)

We have a follow up on Friday with Luke's cardioligist Dr. Mark Skalansky in Los Angeles and we hope the results will be the same as they were last Friday.  Please help us continue to pray for our little guys "special heart."

Thank you again for all your love and support!
