Oliver is almost 15 pounds. His heart is great. His stomach is too.
Oliver is officially enrolled in physical therapy. Yesterday the therapist asked me what my 6-month goal is for him. I said I'd like to see him crawling. The therapist asked, "Why? I mean, what is the reason you want to see him crawl?" Apparently she needed to document my motivation for any goal I suggested. It was challenging to give sarcastic-free response, but I did.

That's a shame. The sarcastic response would have made for better blogging :)
Good to hear that Ollie continue to flourish.
hi I'm Izabells mom and scame to your blog from a freinds and wanted to let you know about a heart group that has been great. We are a group of families who meet once a moth at seattle children's hospital 1st Sunday of the moths at 230 every mths. We talk share and try to help each other and offer support. we also have a email link to share if you don't want to or can't come to meetings. just thought I would share ~ wyndi
Heart to Heart is our parent led group that serves as a support network of friends for children with congenital heart defects (CHD) and their families. We also endeavor to raise CHD awareness and promote the importance of life-saving research by fund-raising efforts with our sister organization, the Children's Heart Research Guild.
We are composed of families who cope with congenital heart defects. We meet on the first Sunday of each month. We welcome all who seek to talk about being diagnosed with and living with congenital heart defects. We realize that coping with CHDs is very difficult and that having a community of people willing to share their experiences means that we can travel this road together and draw strength from each other.
We also plan activites and events for our heart children and siblings so that they get to know other kids who are just like them.
This listserve is another way for us to stay connected between meetings. Please feel free to post news relating to CHD, our group activities, suggestions, updates concerning group members, and well-wishes. Under our Kindred Hearts link, you can readily find the blogs and websites of our children.
If you would like to join us or want more information, please contact Josephine Young MD, pediatrician and mom of a child with a complex congenital heart defect at heartmom1204@yahoo.com or 425-827-4600.
