    (((HUGS)))...one day at a time and always focus on the positive. Ricky is here and still fighting! I am so sorry that he in having trouble with his trach. I imagine the hospital social workers have started talking with you and what happens when you bring him home. He will qualify for in home nursing care that will help you, you just have to interview and find a nursing company you feel comfortable with. The hospital social workers should be able to help direct you. They can also help you with anything you can think of, just ask.

    Ricky is blessed to have a mom who is still standing by his side and fighting with him, even through the darkest moments. One day at a time. We are always here for you if you need to talk or vent. (((HUGS)))

    Are you at a hospital in TX then? We do have a hospital angel at Texas Children's and we do have a TX State Rep. Her name is Casey Carter and she can be reached at texas@cherubs-cdh.org or ccarter@cherubs-cdh.org.

    Thinking and praying for Ricky's continued healing and recovery.
