Rooming In

Exciting News! Kim got to room in with Tenna last night, and will again tonight. This is in preparation to go home. If all goes as expected, Tenna will be going home tomorrow. Tenna moved to the pediatric wing yesterday and is in her own room.

Kim and Tenna are having a sleep-over in Tenna's room.The "rooming in" is for Kim to practice taking care of Tenna and all of her needs where she still has back-up in case she has questions.

Tenna will be going home on oxygen, a heart monitor and an NG tube. The oxygen will likely continue until after her heart surgery, and the NG tube is a feeding tube, Tenna still prefers this way of eating.

After Tenna goes home, she will still be very high-risk. She cannot afford to get sick. Please be very cautious and considerate of this. Your love and concern is appreciated.
