1st Hopsital visit

Yup...it's happened already. Emily and I spent the night at Children's Hospital. She has an apnea monitor at home with us and she's had a few too many spells so the doctor thought it would be best for her to have an overnight hospital stay for observation. The good news is that she has what's called "periodic breathing" episodes and it's something she'll eventually outgrow. The bad news is that she will have to continue to be monitored at home 24/7. (She has to wear leads and stickers and be hooked up to a machine). We can still hold her and cuddle her and do all the fun things with her!
Also...I now have an overnight bag packed with all my essencials. Apparently you never know when you're going to need it!
