Our visit to Montefiore Children's Hospital

I am thankful to say that our trip on Friday to the cardiologist went very well. John saw the cardiac electrophysiologist, Dr. Pass. After another EKG, the doctor determined that although John still has the condition known as WPW, he felt that we did not have to take any immediate action at this time. When John turns 10 however, he will be hospitalized for the cardiac cath procedure. At that time, they will insert a cath up into his heart to determine if they need to proceed with the 'oblation' of the cardiac impulse. They feel more comfortable doing this at the age of 10 as his heart will be slightly larger and he would tolerate the procedure much better. We left the doctors office feeling more comfortable than when we arrived. John has been cleared for all sports and gym. Thanks for all of the prayers and phone calls....John definately has an angel looking down on him!
