Monday's Update

Hello there,
Braden had a follow-up clinic appt. with Dr. Cava, his cardiologist, today. Grandma Lois came with to help out. There weren't a whole lot of changes made. He's still on the meds he was sent home on and of course, the oxygen. Although his sats have improved, Dr. Cava wasn't overly impressed to the point of getting rid of it just yet. We will go back in a few weeks for another clinic appt. If his O2 sats still aren't where they should be, we may need to adjust some meds....we shall see :-) After our clinic appt. we were able to visit our friends, the Slagers, who are the parents of Sam (Braden's former room-mate from his 1st surgery). Sam is continuing to recover from his surgery in the PICU. We continue to pray for him and his parents.

That's really about all. Braden has done well adjusting back to our quiet home life.

The attached pics are of us going home from CHW and a pic I took today of Braden and his new winter hat (compliments of Aunt Barb, Uncle Mark, Nat, Andrew & Trevor).

Love,
Steph
