So, as always I caused us to be rushing to the airport because I am habitually late, Kallan cried the entire way to the airport and we were both starving. Fun times for the Windhams! We get to the airport, rush to check our bags and we see the flight has been delayed from 2 to 4 due to mechanical issues. That was fine with us. We just took our time getting through security got to our gate and decided to go have a glass of wine. (yes with our newborn, I know) Kallan was sound asleep after wearing herself out crying for so long, so things were going well. Until then our flight was delayed until 5.....ok another glass of wine....then it was delayed until 6.......no more wine, but getting really irritated. So, we decided that if it got delayed again we were going to call it a day and cancel. A newborn had no business being in the airport all day and weather was rolling into Cincinnati, so the longer it got delayed the more likely we were going to get bad weather delays as well. It got delayed until 7. So, we canceled our flight and got our money back. Canceled our hotel, rental car and doctor's appointment. Ben was supposed to leave from Cincinnati to go to DC, so he had to buy a new ticket. We could not get our bags because supposedly they went to Cincinnati on a different flight. Of course, right as we were getting home they called to say oops they were there and we could come pick them up. I just love Delta! (that was very sarcastic!) What a long day! We were so disappointed we did not get to meet with the TSC doctor, but we are rescheduling for March. I will keep you posted! Until then we are just praying Kallan keeps doing well and trying to start raising money.

Cincinnati
Oh what a day! Yesterday we were taking Kallan to Cincinnati Children's Hospital to meet with the best TSC doctor in the nation. They have an amazing TSC Clinic at Cincinnati Children's and even though Kallan is doing so well, we wanted to go ahead and meet with the doctor to see if he could give us any more information and to already be established there, so if things to get bad the doctor will be familiar with us.

Angie, I am so glad you started the blog! It's such a great way to tell everyone out there what is going on and to release all your frustrations. When the boys were born and in the hospital it was my only way of getting everything off my chest. I'm sorry the trip to Cincinnati was no good, I can't imagine having a newborn in the airport all day long. Best of luck to Ben in D.C. Let us know how that goes.
ReplyDeleteAngie, thank you for starting your blog. While our situation was different the emotions are the same and you will find strength you never knew you had. You are very fortunate to have such a loving and close family for support. I do believe in miracles. Just take one day at a time and do not worry about tomorrow. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. I just think how lucky this precious little baby is to have been given such special parents.
