I promise that I will update this blog with Alyssa’s surgery info!!! I have been so busy taking care of her and part of me has been dreading re-living the whole experience – but I will at some point write it all out.
For now, Alyssa is doing great! She is getting over a cold (which after surgery can be scary), but she is still smiling and cooing and overall just such a happy baby.
Her surgery went better than expected, and Alyssa amazed us all with a speedy exit out of the hospital to heal at home.

Love the pics, and all the ones on Facebook. She is a doll!
It was great to see you last week! Please stop beating yourself up about posting, especially if it is about surgery. Just do what you feel you can handle. Hope to see you soon!
Thanks Gina. It’s crazy how easy it was for me to write updates(on fb)while it was happening, however I never imagined it being so hard to write it all out afterward. Everytime I start to write I relive the whole thing.
It was great seeing you as well. I look forward to our hoh meetings. Being surrounded by other heart parents and kids makes it all a little bit more “normal”. And everyone is so wonderful
Congratualation on your daughter’s recovery. Surgery can be scary. We know!
Thank you so much
We feel very fortunate.
