this heart broken

the story of Zoe Marie

This is the journey through our daughter’s Congenital Heart Defect and eventual heart transplant. When you “decide” to go down the transplant route as it is called there are certain things you find out after you sign on the dotted line.

We’re in recovery now and she did very well even after she came out of anesthesia without us (we don’t see her until an hour after she comes out of surgery).  The nurses took good care of her and braided her hair, got her a fuzzy new blanket and a new stuffed animal (of course).  Since she had to have an echo in her first recovery period we’re actually almost two hours into our four hour recovery time so we’re supposed to be released around 1:30 or so.  The inital results of the biopsy look good (her pressures and measurements all look good).  The team will come in shortly and tell us how her stress test went.
