Three weeks later:
Sam had a cardiologist appointment yesterday to check on his progress. This was his second trip back to Hopkins in Baltimore since he was discharged (but the first trip was purely social.) His tests were comprised of an EKG (3- or 4- lead, not 12-lead) and an echocardiogram. He still has a "mild impairment" of his septum, but this is completely normal for someone just out of VSD repair surgery. Sam weighed in at 16 lbs. He is starting to gain weight pretty quickly. His next checkup is in two months, around Halloween. And so this blog will continue for a while longer, probably updating once each week on Wednesday. Here is a picture taken last Friday, Aug 26th. He's a happy boy.
