Pssttt...
... Emma's coming home!
I'm almost afraid to say it out loud (don't want to jinx it, what with the Curse of the NICU, and all), but it looks like tomorrow morning, we'll be bringing our baby home :)
The eye doctor came in late this afternoon and Emma's eye exam went well. There is still evidence of Stage 1 - Stage 2, Zone 2 ROP, but overall the condition has improved since last week and the doc said it is very unlikely to worsen. He still wants to see her again in 2 weeks, but we'll go to his office for the appointment.
So, once we get the OK from the SCN docs at rounds tomorrow, we'll be bringing Emma home...
Yikes... now we have a million things to do tonight to get ready :)

I am so happy for your family. Emma is just a beautiful baby girl. I've been reading Emma's report every morning and have been sharing with my colleagues at work. She is a very special little girl and a fighter. Good luck and please keep on sharing Emma's wonderful progress with us.
