To have all of my family together in one place made me feel so much better.<br>We got the approval and paperwork from our insurance to begin the transplant listing process. We met with the transplant coordinator, social worker, and dietitian. It was information overload and something we will need to pray and process through.<br>We were moved from PICU to a floor! To see where we were a week ago to today is truly a miracle. God is SO faithful and hears our prayers.<br>Tomorrow will be more testing for the transplant workup. Selah and Jay will head back home.<br>This is all so hard and overwhelming. We are just trying to take one day at a time. I&#8217;m homesick. I want us all back home healthy and together.
