Update

We had an ultrasound and fetal echo this week and also met with the new high risk OB and pediatric cardiologist this week. There wasn't much that had changed. She is still growing normally. The cardiologist told us that there is a chance that we can have surgeries with sinusoids, so that gave us a lot of hope. They also looked at her mitral valve, which allows the two chambers of the heart to mix blood. Sometimes, this valve closes or gets really small, which can also cause problems with the surgeries. Thankfully, the valve is still open and not causing a problem. Erik and I are still keeping our spirits up. We are so thankful for everyone's thoughts and prayers. We have an amazing group of friends, family, and co-workers!
