Saturday 1/5/19 - Meghan’s Birthday

Today is Meghan’s birthday & Teagan is 4 months old. Meghan had a bunch of visitors and she got to see Hunter and Teagan. The nurses let Meghan have a pretty relaxing day. Overnight she was having a little anxiety and little chest pain. They did an echocardiogram during the day to see if anything was going on. Later explained to Rob that the left ventricle has moderate decreased ejection fraction of 40-45% and normal is 50-60%. Which in the doctors definition to Rob was the heart isn’t pumping with full strength. They see this happen in patients with prolonged sickness. They also told Rob although it isn’t 100% normal it isn’t worrisome. As Meghan gets better it can go back up. The nurses were so good to Meghan, they brought in a cake and decoration to try and make the day the best it could be for her. Her team of doctors also approved an ice pop for her to celebrate with all of us 💗 Thank you to everyone who sent birthday wishes we told her about all of them.
