Great Cardiology Visit

Ian is my little rock star!  He did fantastic this morning and the news from the doctor was "Everything sounds good; we'll see you back in a year! Call me before then if you need me!"  For various reasons today, I have been an emotional wreck and I think I cried many tears of sadness today for my personal situation, but lots of tears of happiness and thanksgiving for answered prayers!  I was so proud of that little boy.  He did everything the nurse, the ultrasound tech, and the doctor asked of him without even the slightest squirm!

Here are some pictures from our visit!!

Here is Ian getting the stickies on for the EKG!

All hooked up and ready to be still!

All done - here he is actually taking the leeds off himself...

And here he is taking the painful stickies off by himself!  I told him that when he gets older that maybe he can invent some stickies that don't hurt little girls and boys so bad and he said, "That would be a great idea, mommy!"

He's laying back getting ready to start his echo.  He was very patient and was glad to have his right-hand man, Woody, next to his side!

Yummy purple "popsicle" for a surprise since he was so good getting his echo - and look, some pictures of his heart to show his sister!

All and all, it was a wonderful appointment!  Bonner was great staying with a neighbor which always makes the appointment even that much better!  I certainly appreciate all of your texts, prayers, and emails this morning!  Each day that I am faced with unknowns and I call on you, the greatest friends in the world, you have responded in ways that I never thought possible.  I see on a daily basis God's love for me through each of you and I am so thankful!  Yet again, as I close this update with great news, I am completely humbled by God's love for Ian, His answer to many prayers, and His grace!
