Finally Back

I have been really busy after mother's day. Especially with summer and doctors appointments. I hope all is going well with our little heart friends. I have a question has anyone had this problem with pediasure making the child's front teeth bad. The only reason I asked is because Adam has to get his 4 front teeth pulled they said it was from pediasure. They are not going to put him to sleep they are going to numb his mouth. Poor little guy.

Happy Mother's day

Happy Mother's day to all the heart mommies! Thank you all for your suggestions on Adam. I think that the pediasure is keeping the weight steady and he is eating a little now.

Answers needed please

Hi Everyone! I am having a problem with Adam eating now. Before the open heart surgery he had a very good appetite. But now after the surgery he is refusing to eat. Has anyone had this problem and if so what did you do to get them to eat? He only weights 21 lbs and 12 oz I am scared of him losing more weight that he can not afford to lose.

Home Sweet Home

Hello Everyone! Sorry to keep everyone waiting on information. Adam is doing good now that he is home. We all were scared because his blood pressure was really high and they would not let him come home without it lower. I was really scared to bring him home with his high blood pressure. So they put him on vasotec meds and it worked! Here are some pictures. Before surgery

After Surgery

After tube came out

Waiting to go home.

Sorry for Late Update

Hello and Sorry for not updating the laptop batteries died. Well Adam came through like a champ. The surgery took 9 hours because the Dr. had done 4 things to his heart. He just got off of the vent today. He is doing good. They are worried a little because his pulse ox is not high it is in the high 60's to low 70's. Before the heart surgery it was in the 80's. I will upload pictures when I get home. Thank you all for your prayers and support. They were felt.

prayers needed

Hello Everyone! Tomorrow is Adam's big surgery day. Please pray that god would keep him safe during the surgery and that he has a safe recovery. Please also pray for me and my family. I need strength to walk him into the surgery room and let them put him to sleep. I am so scared I can't even sleep now. Tomorrow I will be giving updates on the blog when I find something out or when I receive updates. Thank you to everyone who has been praying for him.
