Cardiologist Appointment

February 8, 2019 by mamawillloveyouforever

Marshall’s liver is still enlarged. So there is no going down on diuretic. The echo looks good. The gradient in the pulmonary veins went up 1 mm.

Return in 3 weeks

Thank you so for the good thoughts and prayers. Please keep them coming❤

Think of the number of lives we could help if we could.

When I don't know what to do, I defer to people with greater knowledge, greater wisdom, greater experience, and greater perspective.
And Marshall's health is no exception.
The difference between life and death for hundreds of babies, like Marshall, born with special hearts, comes down to a lot of things. But in the process of securing the help Marshall needed, I found it often came down to knowledge, money, resources, and access to information.
We're working as hard as we can to gather all of the above. And sometimes that just isn't enough.
You may check out the fundraising website some truly incredible people set up for our family by going here
Any donations we receive will be designated solely for the purpose of ensuring Marshall gets the best care we can offer during our time with him. Though I hope that time is long, there are no guarantees. But one thing is certain: every dollar we raise (beyond covering Marshall's medical and travel expenses) will be used to establish a foundation dedicated to helping other families as they manage their child's congenital heart disease and congenital heart defects.
An anonymous donor once offered to match every dollar in donations up to $10,000. For his or her support, help, and prayers there are not words enough to ever repay our debt.
Think of the number of lives we could help if we could.
Please help if you can.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt

“I believe in miracles, how ’bout you?”
