To all our sweet friends, Let's get you all caught up on our day. Overall, we feel like today went well. We went on our tour of Children's and it was nice to see where we will be during all of this. Our fetal echo went well, they were not all that concerned about the arrythmia that she has every now and then. They didn't seem all that suprised that she was having the beats...we will just need to watch her more closely now. The cardiologist kept saying that her heart "looked good" and he was pleased with her growth and activity. They don't want to see us again unless Dr. Mcgee finds something new or thinks she isn't tolerating her heart rhythm. If all continues to look good, then I won't need to return to Children's until she is born. We met with our surgeon, Dr. Forbess, and he is awesome. We really like him. He drew out some pictures and showed us exactly what he will do in the first surgery if her diagnosis stays the same between now and then. He answered all of our questions and seemed to have good reasoning for all of them. He was extremely upbeat and positive, yet was able to prepare us for some potential complications and risk percentages. He was able to back up all the percentages with reasoning and explanation. Thank you again for all of your prayers, emails, and thoughts. It really does bring us comfort with each and every one of you who responds and tells us how you are praying. We know our sweet baby girl is covered in prayer from so many of you. It's amazing to hear from those of you I see every week and then also to hear from you all that I haven't seen in years. We are humbled by your encouragement and outpouring of love. Please continue praying...we have a long way to go. Thank you again...words cannot express our gratitude for your all going before our God on behalf of our child. We Love You all - Corey and Lisa
