Our little scholar holding his book
As many of you know Matthew is having another Heart Catheter on Tuesday. His Cardiologist, Dr. Gary Mayman, discovered a leak in Matthew's heart valve. This leak is causing a back flow of blood from his newly constructed pulmonary artery back into his heart. There also may be some constriction. Dr. Rothman will go in and take pictures and pressure readings. If there is constriction they can install a stint to widen the area during the Heart Cath. Matthew will have to be put on a respirator during the procedure but, if all goes well, should be extubated immediately afterwards and go home the same day.

"Let us remember that, as much has been given us, much will be expected from us, and that true homage comes from the heart as well as from the lips, and shows itself in deeds." ~Theodore Roosevelt
Matthew shows us all that each day has soooooo much to offer. Take every day one at a time but build on them to create your own life. One little man...on his journey...simpliy keeps striving to be the best he can. What a lesson he teaches us all!!!
