Here she is at our local heart clinic getting an ultrasound - she still gets two a year for now. Great news - she looked great! The thing that's supposed to happen after heart surgery is happening!
Ellie's happy about that news!
Getting ready to get hooked up to wires!!!
Waiting between tests, no need to get fully dressed again. Just her little shawl will do :). (historical note which may need correcting/editing: Shawl made by the original Eleanor's mother?)
But the wait was a bit long so I let her down on the floor - my thought process is that we were the first appointment of the day. How dirty could the floor be???
"Excuse me Doc, you comin'?"
Then her big test where she looked super!
Next up, a trip to Atlanta for a long-awaited visit to a special feeding clinic at the hospital.
Our appointment was early morning so this happened one exit before where we had to get off!
Ellie did great in the car!
Here we are at the visit - she showed them how she could put food in her mouth but not swallow it very well...then she showed them all her smiley faces! :)
By the time we left, Ellie was OUT!
She slept about halfway and was very happy to be home!
Both the feeding clinic and the parents are reviewing information as to whether this place could help Ellie and how/when that will all work out!
