Heart Healthy....

What great news I had today.  Her EKG was great and her value sounds good too!  Her echo is scheduled for the 17th.  If the echo confirms what we hear today at her appointment, Viola will be HEART HEALTHY!  Everyone at The Pediatrics Specialty Practices in Middletown NY are wonderful.  Dr. Fethke is so good to Viola and so caring!  I just cant thank them enough for what they did for my daughter! 

On a side note (which I sure you all hear me talk about), there is a bill in NY (A7941-2011) to require facilities to perform pulse oximetry screening on newborns. The Bill is currently being reviewed by the NYS Dept of Health.  I would ask if you can write a letter to your local assembly person and state senator and also a letter to the Dept of Health.

Thank You all!

  1. Hi, Just googled the fund we have for our daughter Kristen (i check from time to time) and Viola's blog popped up. I never caugth this before. So glad she is doing well. I don not have a website, not so computer savvy. Maybe will someday. Are you interested in helping to facilitate a support group at Dr. Fethke's office. We have been trying to get that up and running now that we have the great space. Hope to talk to you soon! : ) Sharon Tramm
