Good Echo Results
Jackson had his first checkup today with his cardiologist, Dr. Casilda Hermo-Weiler. She is the doctor who diagnosed Jackson quickly after delivery and has watched him throughout the past three weeks. Today, she performed an echocardiogram and was very satisfied with the results. There was a little leakage out of one of his arteries but that's typical after this surgery and she wasn't concerned. His lungs looked clear and there was no fluid buildup around either the lungs or the heart. Tomorrow morning we are meeting with Jackson's surgeon, Dr. David Bichell, who performed the arterial switch. Dr. Bichell will check Jackson to make sure that he's recovering well at this point.

Super News Pal! Is he sleeping much at night, now? I hope so. He'll need his rest in order to watch the Tenn./ Georgia game this Saturday! I think it is neat that he is going to the same Pediatrics Clinic that you did. Like Pop, Like Son! I love you pal. Keep us posted.
