Our Sweet Naomi.....

Today we had another visit to the cardiologist for an echo on Naomi's heart, her 3rd one since we have been home. Though we were hopeful that her pulmonic valve was truly improving, it is apparent today that she needs some intervention. She will be scheduled for a heart cath (with possible balloon procedure) in the next several weeks. The appointment was sort of crazy, Naomi was scared and cried a lot and fought the echo the entire 30 minutes. Though her pulmonic readings were slightly worse today than last time, the dr. believes that may be due to her being (very, very) upset. It took Joel, myself and the dr. to keep her still for the test.....and we were all sweating and worn out when it was all done.
Naomi will have the procedure done at Kosair Hospital and potentially stay overnight, depending on how invasive they get.
I really was hopeful today that she was improving and that this would be delayed, but on the same note, I am so thankful we have been able to hold off for this long. We have had 7 months to bond, grow, and love on her.....so she will know without a doubt we are there for her and love her and will take care of her. God's timing is perfect, in every way. I am resting on this verse today:
"
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,

who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
2 Cr. 1:3-4

Holding you and sweet Naomi up in our prayers. This must be very hard for each of you and I am praying that God will meet your each and every need in a way only He can.

Enjoying our time here in HHI and have thought of your family :) We return home this Saturday.

Hugs from NC(currently SC),
