It's lookin' up!

So, first - Ida is quite a lot better. Lots of recovery to get through, but recover she will. We are still amazed, and so thankful for every little prayer and abstract hope family and friends have made for her.
She may be out of ICU today. The nurses had her walking around her bed, and she is sitting up. When Leah and I left at 1:30 p.m., she was getting ready to tuck into her first meal(ish) since last Friday. And they're taking some of the IV lines out now, too. The nurse said her job now is to recover. No complications thus far.
On the daycare front, we're making headway and are cautiously optimistic about a few options we've found. Whatever hoping you have left to throw our way - we'd appreciate it. It's so overwhelming, to deal with this episode, and to face the prospect of leaving Leah at a daycare. I know, I know, lots of people do it and they're fine, but when you didn't have to entertain the prospect at all and are suddenly thrown into this whirlwind in the week-and-a-half before you go back to work... Well. It's difficult.
So. Chin up and all that... Things might just be turning around.
