Doing really well!
Our little star Mia is doing so well. I will put on some photos later. Everyone keeps asking me how she is - Really great!!
Being stabilised on the warfarin (blood thinner)means regular finger pick tests, but she is getting used to it.
Her colour is great and is not needing much pain releif any more. A bit tired, but went to a full 3hr Kindy on Thursday.
Thanks for all your wishes and thoughts!

Sort of Discharged
Hello All. Great news!! Mia has been discharged to Ronald Macdonald house with us for tonight, to keep an eye on her temperature and see how we go. If all okay, back to the ward tomorrow to have some stitches out (where her drain tubes were) and then off home!!
Thanks for all your love and support over the last 10 days, Rich and I would not have coped without everyones prayers and well wishes.
A very special thanks to our parents and siblings that have helped out so much with Theo!

Off the Ward
Mia is such a star, that they let us off the ward today! First we went to have an Xray (which was great, no effusions), then to the starlight room where Mia made some badges, had her face painted and played the Wii with Cooper, then out to the courtyard for chocolate milk and chips with Chelsea and Cooper! Very tired after that, so back to the room for a 3 hour sleep... Zzzzzzzzzz

I do not like football!!
Out of High Dependency
Mia was really sad to leave Emily in high dependency, but she is just doing so well!! How we got all her stuff into the other room I will never know, we couldn't see Mia on the bed through all the junk and balloons! Thismorning she walked to the bathroom and had a bath, got into her new PJ's (Thanks Cro) and is looking great!

A Message From Mia Herself
Hello everyone out there. Daddy and i have just read all the beautiful messages that you have all been writing on here and facebook. It is now 9pm Sunday night and my operation was on Friday. I would like to also thank everone for the beautiful presents and things. The nurses here are very nice and i am a little bit sore.
Just got to have my first taste of "Warfarin" which helps to thin my blood. It tasted disgusting. Dad and i are now working out the best way of taking it moving forward considering it is a permanent part of my life now. We are thinking chocolate topping or something else yummy.
Here i am with my friend Tam, my beautiful teddy and balloon from Marg and Jane, and my beautiful handcrafted quilt.
Mia had a hard night last night, issues with pain mainly and finding it very hard to cough. Today we will have the pain team and physiotherapists to help out. Still waiting for the Drs to come around thismorning. She is a little happier when awake but still thirsty. Nothing to eat yet except the nose up of a chocolate frog! She has just had a lovely leg massage from Mum and looks comfortable. Thanks for all the messages.
With the possibility of sounding rude, who is KB from ACT?? We are wracking our brains!

Tube Out
Mia's breathing tube came out at a quater past midnight, a lot later than we expected, but she is doing well. We have snuck back tot eh hotel to get some Zzzzz before she realises we have gone. She is very grumpy and all she wants is a drink - which of course is not allowed! Will update again in the morning
