Everett had a blast in the playroom today. He is a lot more mobile now that he has his tubes and wires out. He hasn't walked in a week, so he was a little wobbly taking steps at first (not to mention the monitor box strapped to him is probably heavy). He had fun walking - then running - around until he lost his balance and bonked his head. He's a tough kid, so it wasn't long before he was playing again, but it left quite a knot. He started eating a little bit more today and he seems to be feeling better. There isn't any word on when we will get to go home, but he is definitely coming down the homestretch.

James Everett was born September 13, 2007 with several heart defects that were not detected prenatally: Pulmonary Atresia (PA), Double-Inlet Left Ventricle (DILV), and Levo-Transposition of the Great Arteries (L-TGA). For more information on these defects you can visit these links: https://health.google.com/health/ref/Pulmonary+atresia https://health.google.com/health/ref/Double+inlet+left+ventricle He had his first open heart surgery, the Blalock-Taussig shunt, on September 25th when he was 12 days old. Just 10 days later on October 5, Everett had to be taken back into the OR to drain off the fluid that had accumulated around his heart that could not be diuresed with medication. In January '08 he had his Glenn procedure, and in March '09 he had his Fontan procedure. After these four open heart surgeries he is doing wonderfully!
