Six Weeks Post- Fontan

Santi had a check up with his San Diego cardiologist today. His X-ray showed a tiny bit of fluid on his right side. The Doctor didn't seem too alarmed and didn't make any changes to his medication. 

Overall, everything looked good and Santi did great at his appointment. It was a long day with lots of waiting around. Santi played quietly, ate lots of snacks and waited so patiently every step of the way. He constantly amazes me.

8 weeks post-glenn

It has been 8 weeks since Santiago had his second open heart surgery, the Glenn. We are thrilled at how fabulous he is doing. He is indeed THRIVING!

He had his first check up with his new pediatrician (in San Diego, yay!) today. He got the second round of his vaccines and he did so good. Yes, he cried, but just for a moment. He is such a trooper!
Santi isn't just thriving for an HLHS baby, he's thriving in comparison to healthy kids, the numbers don't lie.
Height 27.25 inches
Weight 17lbs 11oz
...and his big beautiful head is in the 88th percentile!
