Heart Cath is rescheduled for December

Hey everyone,
Unfortunately, Nolan is not feeling well. He has an upper respiratory virus/cold. He ran a low grade fever through the weekend and was still pretty puny on Monday. His cath was quickly approaching and we began to worry about having it done when he is not well. We took him to the doctor Monday afternoon and they agreed that it would not be safe to put him to sleep with any respiratory issues going on. We are disappointed, but we want what's safest and best for Nolan. We will not have the cath this Thursday. The cath will now be December 10th. Thank you for praying for us. We are praying that Nolan feels better soon. We are also praying for patience as we wait.

Heart cath next week

Hey everyone! 
It has been quite a while since I have blogged. We have been on the go! I started my new job and we have more free time together. We are loving it. We have taken the boys somewhere fun almost every weekend since. Nolan has been doing very well! He is so fun to be around. You never know what he may say or do! 

Nolan had his usual every 3 month cardiology check up in mid September. At that appointment, we found out that Nolan's right pulmonary artery is narrowing. I was a little shocked and upset. He has been doing so well! Three months prior his echo was fine, but this time it was not. This is common. The artery has been operated on twice. Our doctor believes scar tissue is restricting it from growing and stretching. During the cath they will go in and balloon it to break up the scar tissue and stretch the vessel. Nolan himself assured me that he is ok. He is now able to pick up on our emotions and it is extremely hard for me to not show mine. We have not had any procedures since June 2014. Such a blessing. We are nervous, even though we know this is just a small bump in the road. Please keep Nolan in your prayers this next week. We are praying that everything goes smoothly for him. I pray that I have control over my "mom sobbing." The last thing I want to do is scare my tough little guy. 

The cath is scheduled for Thursday October 22nd at 7am. Thank you for being there for us and keeping us in your prayers. It means the world to us.
