Heart Check-Up

We had Reese's heart re-check today and according to Dr. R, everything looks PERFECT! Praise the Lord! Reese has done remarkably well since the surgery and according to him, the device is sitting beautifully, right where it's supposed to! Reese did wonderful today -- she had to get an EKG, an X-ray, and an ECHO and not one bit of fussing came out of her mouth! Mimi went with us because Joe was out of town -- after Reese's appointment, Mimi took her to get an Icee for being so good. We don't have to go back to see Dr. R for a year! Reese will continue to take a baby aspirin for a year, but other than that, we can resume normal activities! Hooray! So so glad this is behind us and all is well. Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers -- we are so blessed to have a healthy baby girl with a strong beating healthy heart!!

Her Xray -- if you look closely, you can see 2 tiny dots on the right side of this picture and that's where the actual device is clamped. I'm still amazed when I think of this procedure and how it was all carried out.....so amazing.

Ready to go.....my big strong girl!
