Yesterday (12/4/12), I traveled to Prairie Heart Institute and received Jack's sedated echo results. I am happy to say that the results were good! His PFO (patent foreman ovale- hole in heart) is FINALLY closed! It took almost 4 years! If it was still there, Jack was going to have to go to Cardiac Catheterization. Phew! He still has a thickened aortic valve. No leaking. No pressure. All good! We don't have to go back for a year! This is wonderful news because many CFC Syndrome individuals require heart surgery.
Jack had his IEP a couple of weeks ago. The meeting went well. The entire team was on the same page. Jack has been visiting a second classroom (the next level up from his, which is the lowest) every day. He tells me about "Ms. Allie's class" every day. Well, good news! He will be placed in Ms. Allie's class, full-time, beginning in January. We will be switching from morning classes to afternoon classes, but I can work around that.
Here are some pictures to entertain everyone!
Jack's new braces (AFOs-ankle foot orthotics)! He picked the pattern out all by himself! |
Jack didn't believe me when I told him he was too big for the baby swing! |
He picked the tray off the floor while swinging! |
