One boy's long road to recovery. Matthew was born two months premature with a rare fourfold heart defect known as Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia and MAPCA's, and Ventricular Septal Defect. He's had two open heart surgeries and will need additional heart surgeries in the future. To appreciate the absolute miracle of this "3 plus million dollar boy", you'd need to look into the "Archives" beginning after his first 9 hr open heart surgery at Stanford, August 2005.

I have been fasinated with your blog and impressed with your courage. My son was sick for a short time when he was 18 months old and I remember the scared "hold your breath" feeling that you have every day. Now that Matthew is home I hope you can breathe a little easier (and Matthew too) My son is 15 now, how time flies. You will look back on this time when Matthew is fifteen, and wonder how you got thru it. I retired from my job as a police detective last year, so to you Micheal, my brother in law enforcement, I salute your courage, and you are in my thoughts and prayers everyday! -Nancy Rogers
It is so wonderful to see him home and sitting up and looking so adorable. The pictures are all so cute. Terri & Michael are amazing parents and are handling this new challenge so well. I love you all so much.
