Visited by Nightline

Spent all weekend cleaning our house since the entire world was going to see it. Ha! Our friends from the Speedway did the lights, cameras and sound, so it was really good to see them. They got here at 9:30 this morning and by 12:30, which was when the Nightline ladies got here, they had moved nearly everything out of our living room and set up their own little studio. Vicki Mabrey performed the interviews. She talked with Scott and me first, then interviewed Bailey. She was so nice! We weren't even nervous at all. Bailey did a great job! They were upstairs in her room for most of her interview. I can't believe the show is only going to be 1/2 hour -- they could make a good 2-hour show out of the documentary and the interviews from today. Vicki is going to be in D.C. tomorrow interviewing the FDA about the Berlin Heart. Can't wait to see what they put together. I'm sure they'll do a great job.

We see Dr. Darragh in the morning. Bailey was holding steady all week until last night when she gained 1.5 pounds. But she's still in rhythm! Yeah!! That's an accomplishment. Now we just have to get her fluid off. Poor thing really does look pregnant. She can climb the stairs now, but when she forgets something and needs to go back up, she'll ask one of us to get it for her. She poops out pretty quick. She went to the grocery store with me last night and rode in the wheelchair.

She's officially set up for a Homebound program for school. Two of her teachers called today to set up times to come out and help her with her homework. Her English teacher came out tonight. It's so nice to get help. We still really have no idea how long Bailey will be out of school.

Well, I'm tired. I'm gonna go put my feet up. Be sure and set your VCR's or DVR's or TVo's, or whatever you all might have, for this Thursday at 11:30 p.m.! Hopefully it won't get bumped for some other breaking news.

Have a good evening!
