Hospital Time

Lily and I spent the night at Children's in Chicago. She had a CT Angio yesterday and then we stayed for 23 hour observation on 5. They have scheduled her for a lung perfusion scan this afternoon. Last Tuesday she had a cyanotic episode during therapy. We went to our local ER that has a Children's outpatient center. Her cardiologist came back from home at 11pm to do an echo when LIly fell asleep. She cooperated til the end when she woke up. Her stent in her LPA still looks good.

This past weekend we went to the 9th International Charge Syndrome Conference near Chicago. So very near us! It was great to see so many Charge families in one place. Such great speakers as well from all over the US, UK, Canada and Australia. We can't thank them enough for their care and concern and their information!! When we are back home I will put photos and videos up.
