no date set yet...

Why is it that when you want to know when something is going to happen, you have to wait SO long to find out when it will. Word on the street is that we will get a call on Monday with the surgery date.  \
In the meantime we went to Darla Jane's 2 year well-check and found out that even though she had been showing NO signs at all, she has an ear infection.  The nurse felt confident that it wouldn't delay surgery at all and should be cleared up by the time we go in.  Maybe the antibiotic will help clear up anything else that might pop up too and bust our groove.

Darla Jane was actually pretty good at her appointment, compared to how she used to be at the doctors.  And she is a healthy 28.4 pounds which is in the 82 %tile for her age...and given that her height is only in the 5 %tile I give her even more props for her weight.  Low weight is often something that kids with HLHS and many heart defects struggle will.  That is one thing little miss hasn't had to worry about.
