Annual Heart Check-Up

On Tuesday, September 2, We took Isabel to Loma Linda University Medical Center. Every year she has to get an Ecco of her heart to make sure she is still doing ok. We are happy to say that she is still doing just fine. We were shocked to run into her surgeon who operated on her over six years ago. (He is a very busy man). It was so neat to talk to Dr. Bailey and tell him how well Isabel is doing. He is such a kind man and it was such a neat moment for Chad, Isabel and I. This is Isabel's Cardiologist Dr. Kuhn. He is so nice and always gives Isabel a gift. Last year it was a book. This year he gave her a little puppy. I can't remember what she named it because she keeps changing it.
We always take a picture outside the hospital when her appointment is over. This is her clean bill of health smile. It's a great moment for us all. Isabel loves to watch the helicopters land on top of the hospital. There was one this time. She likes us to tell her the story of when she rode one and landed on that very same hospital when she was not even a day old. We are very blessed to have her!

It was a reall nice day with Isabel. She is good for another year. She has no limitations and can continue playing sports, dancing, riding rollercoasters etc. She is a very happy, outgoing, vibrant, sweet little girl and we love her! :)
