Today was a great day. Sara walked, moved out of ICU to the Mother-Baby Unit at Mercy (room 2033), and started eating liquids. The best news of all is that they will let Graeme stay with Sara and me at the hospital.
We've already had a few visitors here. We will be here at least through the weekend. Visitors are welcome. Sara's condition continues to improve, but her energy and stamina are still weak. Though we can't wait to hold Graeme (Facetime is amazing, but no substitute for real cuddles), we still have a very long road to recovery. We also have to find our rhythm together as a family of five.
Sara's recovery has been so rapid it seems hard to believe that just Tuesday we experienced the joys and terrors of childbirth. Life is so fragile. The ability of the human body to stretch its limits amazes me.
Your prayers, thoughts, and encouragement carried us through our darkest hours on Tuesday. They continue to sustain us. Thank you so much.
