Hayes is Home!

Sorry I haven't posted anything recently but a lot has happened over the past few days. Our little Hayes has made such great strides in the recovery process that the nurses and doctors felt he could go home... so they released him! So now, Mom, Dad, and baby Hayes are home and adjusting to life as it should be. Hayes is doing exceptionally well! He seems to be quite sore, which it to be expected. Hayes will continue to be in good hands, other than that of his parents he will be regularly paying visits to his Pediatrician, Cardiologist, etc.

Thank you all for following the blog. It's because of all your continued prayers that our little angel Hayes is where he's at today. The family truly appreciates in so many ways!

Happy 1 week birthday to Hayes Thomas! Can't believe it's been a week already! The little guy has been through more in one week than most of have or ever will in our lifetime! What a strong, amazing little boy our lives have been blessed with.

Over the course of the past few days Hayes has made great progress. He has had the IV removed from his foot, the high flow oxygen has been replaced with normal oxygen, the drain out of his incision has been removed, and with the help of an occupational therapist, he's began eating (or drinking as Lena likes to call it) out of a bottle! Everyday it seems that more & more tubes/cords are removed from his little body! This little guy one tough little cookie! :)
