Reagan and I met up at the hospital today after work. Much to our joy, little Piper was awake, and still remembered who we are! Reagan arrived before I did. Apparently, when Piper saw her, she held her arms out right away. This can be a little bit dangerous, since Piper is still pretty wobbly. For the most part though, we can tell that Piper is on her way back to being herself. She got a new IV today, so that her center line can hopefully come out tomorrow. She is completely off the nitric today, and will hopefully be done with the morphine tomorrow. It seems like she is having some pretty serious withdrawals. She will be completely mellow for a stretch, then completely restless, the next. Poor little girl. We always worried about what to do if our kid became an addicted to narcotics. We just didn’t think that it would happen until at least the teens. Hehehe. Joking aside, Piper is one tough little cookie. It really was amazing to see her with her eyes open, playing with toys and tapping stuff. Her sense of humor hasn’t returned yet. But, I don’t really blame her. We are just happy that she is now doing as well as she is.

Great news, she looks great, love seeing those beautiful eyes.
Good news but still so sad that she and you all are going through this.
PS- Tell Piper her Auntie says “Up with hope! Down with dope!” (Reagan knows what I’m talking about.)
woo hoo!!! So glad to see Piper’s beautiful eyes!
It’s so good to see those big beautiful blue eyes open again! We’ve missed you Piper!
