Faith is coming home soon!

Great news!!! Erica and Bill will be leaving the hospital with Faith tomorrow and returning home to Connecticut.

Tonight, the new family will be staying in the Launching Pad at the hospital, which is a room where parents and baby can stay in the hospital but do not receive help or care from the nurses or staff. In the Launching Pad, parents have the opportunity to practice caring for their babies with the comfort of knowing that if a problem arises, there are competent nurses and doctors around. It will be Erica and Bill’s first experience caring for Faith totally free of wires or tubes, and the first experience they will have inserting the feeding tube and administering medicine without someone watching them.

If all goes well, Uncle Paul will pick them up tomorrow afternoon and drive them to Bethel, where Faith, Erica, and Bill will see Faith’s room for the first time. Fortunately for Faith, she has two fantastic aunts and a wonderful grammy who went over to the condo the past few weeks to get everything ready for her. J

The next big hurdle will be the next surgery in the spring….which of course Erica and Bill will keep you informed on.

We are all so excited. Erica and Bill and Faith can’t wait for you to come visit. Again, they thank you for all of your well wishes, warm thoughts, and prayers.


Love,

Karen (Billy's sister-in-law)
