Going home....

YAY! Kayli is being discharged to home today. We will continue Kayli's treatments on at Outpatient Basis at the Texas Liver Center and with her new Pediatrician Dr Ray. She will be returning to school on Monday, November 16th. I hope she can take the next few days to get caught up on school work!! She is most excited about getting to see her kitty, Lancelot.

We thank everyone so much for the outpouring of love and prayers, as well as the well wishes, balloons, gifts, and more importantly the hospital visits from everyone. You all helped tremendously to keep Kayli's spirits up during her hospital stay. Its been a long 10 days, and I am sure we are just beginning on our path; but we know that we will have lots of prayer warriors with us every step of the way. Our immediate prayer need is that Kayli's liver will begin to heal itself and the need for corrective medications will become less, her platelet count will improve, and she will not ever need a new liver.

Will continue to update this blog as it is extremely therapeutic for me, and keeps the prayer chain working!!

Below are some pictures from today...will have more upon our actual return home.















This is the amazing Dr Ray. He made things so comforting for Kayli and really made sure she understood everything going on. We will continue to see him on an outpatient basis which makes Kayli happy. She sure didn't mind waking up to him every morning!! :)









Starting to pack up this morning!


















Taking a final weight this morning before discharge. When Kayli first started this ordeal with her visit to Dr Hampton on October 27th, she weighed in at 178lbs, which we found was all fluid!!!







Today's weight before discharge...see the scale below but its 143 lbs!!! :) She was thrilled!


















Dad takes a load out to the car...dont worry there's still plenty in the room.....
