Sticker shock!

One million three hundred eighty four thousand two hundred dollars and sixty three cents.  This was the final amount that was printed on the 56 page invoice we received from New York Presbyterian Hospital. The invoice was so long that the printer started to run out of toner on the last few pages. Although this is a lot of money, money that would take more than a decade to earn, I still cannot put a price on the smile Jacob had when I last held him. We last saw him on Tuesday at St Mary's Hospital when we went for more training. He is showing more and more personality every time we see him. I can't wait to get him home again; which has been delayed once again. Today was supposed to be the big day but the staff at the hospital and the home nursing service were not on the se page yet.  Tuesday is the next scheduled day for his homecoming. I can't wait to see Jacob and Corinne playing together for the first time in their lives. I can't wait to see the interaction between Jacob and John Paul. JP absolutely loves his sister and cannot wait until he gets to see Jacob again. We all cannot wait any longer. Will it be more Work? Yes. Will there be more reward? Absolutely! We adore the gift of Jacobs life. Whatever he goes through, he will have his loving family by his side every step of the way.
