First Update

Hello everyone,

I created this blog to keep all of our family and close friends updated on the family and my medical issues and not make it available to the world. Facebook is great but I don't really want the world knowing every single detail of what is going on. Please keep the information you read on this blog private unless it is posted otherwise. Thank you for your discretion.

Update: Ami and I go to meet the surgeon today so we can meet him. If we are happy with him and decide to let him be my surgeon we will go over the specifics of the surgery, most importantly the type of valve we are going to request and the date. My fatigue level increases almost daily so we are going to ask for the soonest date possible. We already have a good idea of what we want, just want his opinion too. The appointment is at 2:30 so don't expect another update until this evening.

Thank you to Mom (Mimi) for watching the boys for us this afternoon while we are at the appointment.

I will try to update the blog by 10:00pm daily.

Have a good day.
