Brand New Baby

It's been almost a month now since Lilly had her heart surgery and she is doing amazingly well 🙂 She has so much energy now, it's wild.

Struggling

Lilly is back home and recovering like a champion. She still has pain, especially when she hiccups (the saddest thing I've ever seen) but, she's doing so great all things considered 🙂 Me, on the other hand? I'm not ok.

So, as it turns out, Lilly also has a section of her aorta that is narrower than it should be. This is called a coarctation of the aorta. This also needs to be fixed surgically.
