Been a LONG time.

I forgot my password, that's how long it's been.  Thank goodness for the ability to reset.

I guess it's a good sign that I haven't updated this blog in forever (apologies if anyone is still reading or occasionally checking in) - Laura's health has been pretty stable cardiac-wise.  She did have to have a stent placed in her new conduit a year after the surgery to replace the conduit. 

Laura has undergone a few other surgeries related to other birth anomalies.  We were unable to find a doctor to repair her limb deficiency - tibial hemimelia -  so at the age of 3 1/2 she had a thru-the-knee dis-articulation.  It didn't take long for her to get accustomed to using her prosthetic as she had been wearing a modified version with her deficient limb.  Last summer she had corrective surgery on her left foot, the same surgery she had at 13 months old, we are hoping it works this time - only time will tell though.

Laura will be entering first grade in a few weeks, my how time flies.

For her sixth birthday Laura went to Disney World and celebrated with dinner at Cinderella's Royal table.
