Day 787

Today we went to Cardiology and Ava had two tests done. One was an echo and they found that the hole in her heart has closed. So now she can go deep sea diving and fly a jet when she is older. ;) Awesome news! She has come so far! Do you remember on Day 12 when Ava's hole in her heart had reopened? She is doing incredibly well. We only have to go to the cardiologist a year from now. He affirmed that Ava is completely a miracle and that he wishes he could replicate myself and our family. He said they have moved to the back of the bus now when it comes to the "bus load" of doctors. It's awesome to think that one of the body's major parts is now no longer much of a concern for us. Praise God!

We have went down to 220 ml of food for Ava and are keeping the feeds at 4am, 12pm and 10pm. The GI doctor also recommended to go off Eryped for 5 days and it should help it work again to help Ava's digestion since she has been spitting up.

I also spoke to Lung Center yesterday and we have to wait 2 weeks to start going off the vent at nap times. Which of course ends up being the Monday after Easter and they are off that day.

Ava also is back to weighing 12 kg = 26.46 pounds. She is 85 cm long = 33.46".

Thanking God for Ava's amazing progress and praying that she will be vent free and trach free a year from now...
