Dr. Orie appointment

We had Drew's cardiologist appointment the other night. He was to say the least very naughty! Poor Dr. Orie, he tried very hard to get a temperature, weight, height and pulse ox from Drew. It was a challenge. Then it was time for the echo. He was not good for that either. Dr. Orie told us that for doing the echo on a moving target it looked good! His function remains the same, no leaky valves or blockages. All in all he is doing well. His pulse ox was even 80. That is actually very good for Drew. Dr. Orie anticipates that drew's next surgery, the fontan will be in a year and a half to two years. Fingers crossed that we are able to go that long.

Snack time


Drew did not want to leave school when it was time for dismissal, so I asked him if he wanted to go and eat lunch, he said " sure" then sat down at the classroom's table!
His Teacher, Mrs. Colleen said he really enjoys snack time. I am not surprised.

School


Drew Loves school. This picture is from the first day of school. He now goes 2 days a week and learns how to play with other children as well as listen and follow directions! I did expect him to at least want to give me a kiss goodbye, but no, he could not have pushed me out of the door fast enough.
