I talked with the doctors this morning about taking Harper back to Hillcrest. The one doctor called Hillcrest Hospital a "palace" compared to main campus, which is fairly accurate. Private rooms, more space, up-to-date... we are looking forward to the possibly move. Also, close to work and free parking!
The doctors want Harper to stay for at least one more day and have a clear x-ray before they let her go from the care of the cardiothoracic specialist. So - hopefully, everything will look good tomorrow and we can move her back.
As for coming home, we need to get Harper taking a full feed of milk by mouth and then we will be good to go! Once again, we hope that she will be on milk by this weekend and be strong enough to take a full feed by next week or after that. We understand that it will probably be longer than that, as we have seen most of this experience has taken longer than we have expected, but we are staying optimistic. We see a small light at the end of the tunnel, but are still unsure of how far away that light is... but at least we know it's there! :)
