Next year will mark ten years since having her last open heart surgery called the Fontan. I can’t believe it’s been ten years! I can still remember all of the feelings and memories of her surgery and recovery. I’m glad she was able to have a good recovery and has done so well since then.
Next summer she will have in-depth testing with a cardiac cath, blood tests and meet with a team of doctors to see how her other organs are doing.
We try to treat Lynnlee like a normal kid. She has been playing soccer since she was 3-years-old and skiing since she was 5-years-old. We never know if that is good for her heart or too much. Her cardiologist said it is good and that regular physical activity will help her heart not hurt it.
She normally goes the the main campus but this time we only had to drive to Riverton. It was nice! We stopped for lunch on our way home.
