Wow it is hard to believe that is has been over a month since Samantha has had her surgery. It is amazing to look at her and know what she has been through.  I would love to have a conversation with her and ask her how she is really feeling.  To me it looks like she is feeling much better.  All she wants to do is have us hold her hand while she trys to walk around. She also points and wants to touch everything. Her being on oxygen at night is still a challenge.  You can tell she does not like it because she immediately rips it off her face. lol  Another 4 weeks and we should be able to pick her up normally.  Thank you everyone for continued prayers.  Our family is very appreciative for everything that has been done for us.

Today was our two week follow up appointment with the Cardiologist. Sammie had a chest X-Ray and an EKG done. The X-Ray and EKG both came back with good results. Her heart is not as enlarged and her lung is clearing up. She has also gained 1 1/2 pounds since she was hospitalized. Sammie still needs to be on oxygen but only for bedtime use. We could not have asked for better news. It looks like our little girl is healing very well. Her next follow up appointment will be in 3 months. Our prayers have been answered.

February 5, 2011 My First Birthday

Today we celebrated our daughters first birthday. It is hard to imagine that two weeks have already past since her surgery. We are so proud and happy to have her in our lives. Everyday is a blessing and everyday is another day recovering.
