PDA is Closed

Just wanted to give you all a quick update in case you hadn't heard. Yesterday the nurse practitioner came in and let us know that they had some news. They had started the indocin to get the PDA to close in the heart and had done an echocardiogram to check the progress. No one really expected it to work for Haddie. They had told us beforehand that due to her age and other complications this would most likely provoke a surgery.  Turns out that during the echo they saw that it had started to close and by the time they were done, the PDA was completely closed! The NP said that this was completely unexpected and that she was really surprised. She said that several times.

We were excited but not that surprised. Whenever God's children come to His throne, He hears them. And as I have said before, He has the power to do anything. And we thank Him for closing the PDA.

Haddie still has to deal with what is called acidosis, a high level of acid in her blood. They are currently treating that. They thought it was due to the PDA but since that closed...they aren't sure just yet.

Thank you prayer warriors for your love and support. God is good.
