It Was Exactly 48 Hours

So, it has been brought to our attention that some of you assumed we were still in hospital since we had not updated. We showed up at Joshua's MDO yesterday and our arrival was clearly a surprise to everyone. Then, when we saw some friends at the park, they had the same reaction. So, I apologize to everyone for being slow to share the good news.
The doctors let us go home at precisely 9pm on Monday. Apparently, having the chills means the doctors need to watch both Joshua and his blood cultures for exactly 48 hours. It was very different to be waiting by the door to see the clock tick over and hear the nurse tell us it is OK to go. Usually, we are watching counts and waiting curiously as we try to read the doctors minds about when we will go home. It was kind of nice. Nice in that I hope we don't go back to the hospital soon way.
