One Year Later

[551staaa]

Last year on this day, I posted about my granddaughter Penelope having successful open heart surgery and was overwhelmed with all of the well wishes and prayers from the community.
One year, a second open heart surgery, a feeding tube insertion (and subsequent removal), four heart caths and another 4 1/2 months in the hospital later, this is what has become of it all. She's 23 lbs. 3 oz., 31 1/2 inches long, and her pulmonologist recently referred to her as "the healthiest sick baby he has ever seen".
God is good.

So happy to hear she's doing well.
Incredibly happy, for her and your family.

So killer man! Absolutely great to hear.

Two of my nieces were born substantiaĺly premature over the past few months(nowhere near the complications you described) but they are also healthy and happy even though they are just now passing normal birth weight.

Such a relief when these babies show us how tough they are.
