Still no more episodes, 4.5 days clear now. She was cleared to come home tomorrow but we managed to put it off a couple more days. Although we really want Taylor home and for things to get back to normal, we're still pretty nervous about bringing her home. The doctor came and talked to me at length today and I did feel a little better afterwards, but they have agreed to give her a couple more days to help us feel a little more comfortable about being discharged, so Saturday should be the big day. They cannot obviously guarantee that she'll be free and clear of these episodes but they are able to say with confidence that they believe she is ready to go home, based on the tests she's had and the results they have shown, and all the things that were ruled out. She's got an appointment with the Pediatrician next Friday, and will start seeing her Cardiologist the following week. The Cardiologist will be putting another 24 hour monitor on Taylor the day before her appointment then she'll take it off at her appointment, read the results and we'll go from there. It's all so overwhelming, I'm looking forward to meeting her so that we can better understand the arrythmia that Taylor has, what it will mean for her, and where we go from here.
