THEM-UNZ IS HOME...

JUST AN UPDATE...TWO FACEBOOK POST BY JEN AND A NOTE THAT THEY STOPPED HERE LATE LAST NIGHT FOR A SLEEPOVER ON THE WAY HOME.  THEY SHOULD BE THERE NOW...


Friday (1/10/14)

Well, we are still here although I'm not sure why. The only machine that is monitoring Owen right now is the oxometer (or something like that). The Only Machine! He's not on oxygen anymore. I think the last time he received any oxygen was this afternoon. It's just a very slow process.

Owen had his first tv appearance today and I must say he did awesome. He cried right on cue! A local news station came to our room and interviewed Drs Meara and Proctor and also Kevin and I. Lauren Burkert Lazzari connected us with a producer of the station. (Thank you!) They were so nice and the story they aired was very well done. They first showed his picture at the beginning of the news and said about a miracle. It was awesome to hear "baby Owen" and "miracle" used by someone we don't really know. The news station is supposed to post it online so I will share it once it's up!

Owen will be getting fitted for a helmet soon. I'm not sure when or where. They mentioned doing that up here Monday but they must have seen the look on our face about staying through the weekend. That is definitely something we can do back home.

Well I'm exhausted! I'll let you all know when we get discharged and get to put Owen in his car seat for the very first time!

Good night and God Bless!

Bye bye Boston! You have been great to us! Thank you for saving Owen's life! We are forever in love with the great city! — feeling happy.

The crew slept over here in State College on the way home.  Headed out for the last leg this morning around 11 am.
