I got back to the hospital this evening after having gone home for the afternoon (a good family friend came to the hospital to stay with Levi) to find out that they're probably keeping Levi here until the end of the week. I was definitely stressed about this--not because they're keeping Levi but because finding people to take care of Nate and Lucy has been so hard. It seems all of my non-working friends have children who are sick or are sick themselves (e.g., Casey, Lissa, Janel, and Kim). All of the emotion and stress from the past week I think have just been building up, so I called Mama in poor spirits. Within an hour, a flight had been booked: my sister is arriving tomorrow at 11:00 a.m.! I am so thrilled! I haven't seen Lucy since June. Lucy, hurry here! :)
P.S. They are going to do some "breathing treatments" (albuterol with a nebulizer) on Levi to see if they help with his cough.
P.P.S. There is a very loud child (sounds like 3 years old or so) next door. Poor thing--I'm sure he/she is sick and feels terrible, but I hope the crying dies down soon, or it'll be a long night for all of us!

Awww bummer! Hang in there girlie! You'll all be home before you know it. I can totally sympathize with you, sweetie! I remember... all of the days and nights and the taking turns and the pleads to watch Angelina, and all the while seeing your child laying in a crib [an incubator in my case]... definitely a hard thing!
Your mom rocks! How fantastic that your sister is coming. Family is the best. :)
