This afternoon we have to take Marshall in for another visit with Dr. S. Please send some big, good thoughts. Over the weekend, another big wild boy fell ill with viral yech. And Marshall’s got that issue with his pulmonary veins that they discovered last appointment and are monitoring … Many, many thanks […]
Marshall had his 2nd post-op check up with Dr S this a.m. The echo showed the pulmomary vein confluence has signs of blockage (not sure if this is the proper medical term) and is at 10 (previously thought to have been at 4). When we left Boston, Dr Friedman had said it is only a […]

This (rough) morning, Marshall has his second cardiologist appointment since we have been back home! So far it has shaped up to be a rough start. One case of strep, one exhausted ginger boy, and one screaming ginger baby have me entirely worried for reasons I don’t have time to explain. Please send some good […]
Marshall had his appointment with his pediatrician today and everything seems great! Plus he had the chance to flirt with some of his favorite ladies. :-). Marshall’s pediatrician did find some fluid in his ear. Perhaps this is the reason for his post-op fever?? If it was something as simple as a teething related ear […]
The results of today’s appointment: Marshall “looks great” (direct quote from Dr Smith). The echo showed the heart function has improved. Dr Smith placed it on the mild to moderate side versus where it had been…despite “never having seen anything like this” Dr Smith had decreased the lasix level and would like to see how […]
Marshall’s first post op/discharge follow up is this morning with Dr. S. Dr S is off today but still seeing Marshall. How is that for great medicine?? Please send some good thoughts and prayers if possible. Marshall’s fever went away for one day and returned. This is day 12 that Marshall has had low grade […]
Marshall’s second surgery. Funny how it seems like both just yesterday and a lifetime ago…
The good news is Marshall’s labs came back fine yesterday. There’s no real reason to keep us here especially since Marshall has steadily gotten stronger every day. So we are…drumroll please: GOING HOME! Unless…Marshall’s labs at 12:30 p.m. come back weird. Which is always possible. Fingers crossed. I have three big wild boys I ABSOLUTELY […]
