It feels strange today. I'm doing this update from my own computer in my own house. I came home this afternoon and plan to stay until Monday morning. I've been spending about 10 hours a day at the hospital for the last 35 days. And before that I spent 3-6 hours a day there for 11 weeks. Now that I'm home I've realised that I'm really tired. The kind of tired where I think I could sleep for a week if I could rest my mind.
I am happy to be home. I swear Olivia has grown since I last saw her. I feel like I've missed so much here. But it feels right - almost. When Scott comes home it will be perfect! I miss him already. It was really hard to leave. But his parents are there now and I really trust the doctors, nurses and others that care for him 24/7.
I was there this morning and Scott had a solid 5 hours of sleep last night. That is such an improvement! There have been some medication changes with the purpose of helping him sleep better. I think the outings and ice chips help too. He can feel more like a person again - not just a body full of tubes.
I hope that I can notice a big difference after not seeing him for 4 days. I think that will be good medicine for me too!
