A year ago this week...
...Caden had his heart cath. I can't believe it's already been a year!! For those of you who don't know, last August, Caden had a balloon valvuloplasty (sp??) of his aortic valve. This was to help open up his Aortic Valve. It was also to help us avoid open heart surgery for a little while. It worked beautifully!! God used some wonderful doctors to help Caden's valve last a little longer. We went to his cardiologist 2 weeks ago, and his valve is still looking GREAT!!! In fact, there have been no changes since last August...this is AWESOME!! Dr. B even said that if he continues progressing in the same manner, we may be able to put of surgery until junior high or so! His advice was to get him a nice set of golf clubs early...Yea non-contact/strenuous sports!! Thank you to all of you who have prayed for our precious baby since his birth...the prayers are OBVIOUSLY working! God is so good!!
