Today turned out to be pretty exciting! I had my heart check up with the Dr. who did my ASD closure it's been 7 months. They did an ultra sound and an EKG to make sure there were no problems, no leaks or overflows, and all looks good! Their is now scar tissue surrounding the amplatzer forming a good seal.
Before my surgery my right side of my heart was enlarged. Usually when they seal a hole in a child's heart as they grow their heart adapts and gets back to normal rather quickly. They didn't think this would happen to me because I'm done growing and changing. However, by the grace of God, mine has gone back to normal! The Dr. was very impressed! ;-) This is very good news!
I'm down to 4 symptoms now, migraines, chest pain, dizziness, and fluttering, but they all seem to be gradually getting better with time for which I am so grateful for! So I'm excited to see what the next 6 months will bring!
It is so humbling being in a children's hospital. I can only pray for those who I see are bearing far worse hardships and greater trials. It breaks my heart to see so many children suffer and I pray that God will use such things to bring them closer to His Word and to saving faith. I don't have any idea how we would have made it through this without Him!
So thank you Jesus for each new day! God has done and is doing amazing things!
