Summers Home

Finally Summer is home !!! We got back last night at 8.30pm ish and its a wonderful feeling to all be together as a family again.

The surgeons are really impressed with how quickly Summer has recovered - she is now drinking some milk , although not her normal amount - but we are getting there. Her bowel seems to be working fine and she has a large crescent shape scar to show for this adventure!

Whilst in hospital Summer developed a blood clot in her right leg where her central line was put in. She is now being given blood thinning drugs to try and disperse the clot. We were allowed home on the condition that Nurse "mummy" gives Summer the injections twice a day - not an easy task if any of you know how squeamish I am! Her leg will then be scanned again in two weeks to see if the clot has reduced or hopefully gone completely.

Now we are home we are all looking forward to seeing Summers new cousin - Isabella Lily who was born on the 19th Nov weighing 6lb 3oz and also getting some normality back into our lives.
