My Little Trooper!!











As some of you may know, when John was born they detected a congenital heart defect known as Valvar Pulmonic Stenosis and WPW. He gets extremely rapid heartbeats. We saw his cardiologist in the beginning of September and they ran an EKG as well as a sonogram to determine whether or not his condition had improved. Based on their findings, they scheduled John to come back for a stress test. He was so excited that he was going to be walking/running on the treadmill at the doctors office. Based on the results from the appointment yesterday, the doctor is still a bit concerned that the WPW is still causing John some problems. We are now scheduled to see a specialist next Friday. John wanted me to take pictures of him yesterday as Dr. Schiff referred to him as "The Purple Power Ranger!!" He was such a trooper and we are very proud of him! Please keep us in your prayers and will keep you updated once we see the doctor next week. We are going to Children's Hospital at Montefiore in the Bronx.
