Cincinnati Update

I know several of you have been waiting to hear how our appointments in Cincinnati went. So here goes:

- Bethany - We had an echocardiogram and EKG for Beth first thing Tuesday morning. The cardiologist said that she does show some anomolies, but nothing concerning, and certainly nothing to cause him to think that cardiac issues are at the root of the breathing problems she is having. This is good and bad news. Good because her heart is fine. Bad because we still do not know what is going on.

- Mercy - Her appointment was GREAT. We are approaching a year on the propranalol for her hemangioma. I plan an in depth photo post in a couple weeks of where we have come from. I know many of you pray for her daily, and I appreciate each and every one of those prayers. She looks WONDERFUL. Dr. Adams said that we are ready to start talking dates for the plastic surgery. This is good news. In April we will see the whole team, and I anticipate we will look at when we can do the surgeries. FINALLY we are starting to really see the end of this phase in our lives.

It was harrowing driving in the snow, but we made it to the hospital and home safely. As for me, I'm ready for some global warming. Brrr...!
