the big question

So the question is when to do the surgery. Originally Dr. Lee wanted to give Allison some time to transition and adjust to her new home, and also to see how she grows. We didn't think she was having much trouble with her heart at first, but in hindsight some of the symptoms were there, we just didn't notice them until they became more frequent.

The good news is she is feeling much better. She's getting a little feisty with her tubes & wires! Her appetite has returned (she had french fries for lunch) and there's no nausea or vomiting.

Right now the plan is to continue to eliminate the water retention and also reduce her supplemental oxygen. So we'll be here again tonight.
