Check Up

We saw the cardiologist today for a follow up. He is very impressed with Gabe's progress. He will see him again in a month to run some tests to make sure things are progressing as they should and hopefully, at that time, take him off most of his meds. We will love that because the Sildenifil is given three times a day and one of those times is at midnight.

In true Gabe form, he put on quite a show today. He had Valentine candy to pass out to the office staff and he charmed everyone there. He even listened to one of the doctor's heartbeat with his stethoscope.

We will see the surgeon again in two weeks and after that, the appointments should taper off. We are just so excited that things are starting to fall together for our family. We only have a couple more weeks to be so home bound. I am going to start him in a Kindermusic class as soon as we can start getting out. We have many plans for spring and summer as well.

I will post periodically as we get more checkups and such. Thanks again for all of your support and prayers. It really helped get us through this. Even though we have had Gabe for 7 months now, we have always been so careful with him. It feels like now we will be able to do normal family things. We are over the moon! Thanks again!!
