Check up with Dr. Teodori

"Thank you, Dr. Teodori, for saving my life. Love, Andrew."

Andrew had his check back with his surgeon today. He is doing wonderful: off all medicine, oxygen saturation at 100%, weighs 10 pounds, slept 6 hours in a row last night. He truly is Super Andrew. 

Thanks to each one of you for all your love and support!

We want to send a BIG THANK YOU to each one of you for the part you played in Andrew's recovery. Kind words, cards, packages, emails, texts, prayers, fasting, and positive thoughts pulled us through those difficult eleven days. We have felt at peace and Andrew was blessed with a miraculous recovery because of your strength, faith, and love.

On Saturday, I was taking a break from the hospital. I took a minute to research a bit more about the arterial switch operation (ASO). The ASO is one of the most complex surgeries for congenital heart defects--a 9 out of 10 according to our surgeon. Typically, babies stay in the hospital 14 days after the surgery. Andrew was released on Sunday after only five days. He has had no complications so far. What a miracle!

Thanks again for your love and support!

Love,

John, Elise, Paul, Megan, Ivy and Andrew
