Easton had his Cardiac Cath at 9:00.  It went very well!  He was already only on the Canula once we got back to his room and Dr. Patel said that he could be fed today as well.  She said she wanted him to like her again:)!

The Cath showed no new surprises so that was good news!  He will have a shunt put in to take place of the PDA arteries that he was born with.  The PDA arteries are something that they are born with and normally close anywhere from a few hours to days after birth.  Luckily his stayed open, and they are keeping them open with a drug called prostaglandin.  After this proceedure is done, we will wait until he is around 6 months old, giving his heart time to grow and then we will have a second surgery to repair the heart and at that time, the shunt will be removed.  They will then put in a conduit to correct the blood flow.  Once he outgrows that one, he will have to have a new one put in.  Hopefully this will only be a few more times throughout his life. 

We were glad to hear that nothing new was found and that we will proceed as planned.  His surgery will be at 1:00 on Thursday.  God has blessed us and will continue to bless us and has answered our prayers!  Please continue to send those prayers up!  One down and one to go!
