Today Teresa 's check up was just so so .
She has a cold and because of that her blood work was off a little . Her heart function has declined but Dr. Hanna thinks this is because of the infection . She was started on an antibiotic and her diuretics were increased to try and take some of the added stress off of her heart .
The good news is she gained 1POUND !!!!
We still can not believe it has been 10 months of waiting for a new heart but I know God knows the day and time .
Dr. Hanna said that most of his patients receive their transplants while he is away on vacation , since he is leaving tomorrow for vacation , he is predicting she will get her new heart this week .
This would probably be the worst week possible for us because next Saturday the girls are going to see Taylor Swift ( for Christmas Grandpop gave the girls tickets to see her on May 11 in D.C.).
The girls also have their ballet recital on May 18th. . Teresa has been so excited about dancing on stage . She can not wait to wear makeup and put on her costume . This song (that is playing ) "How to Believe" by Tinkerbell is the song they are dancing to.
The one thing that I have learned over the past 10 months is that I am not the one in control , God is . Teresa's new heart will come at the exact time that God has planned .
( To hear Teresa sing Party in The USA , pause the music at the bottom .)
Taylor Swift sent Teresa an autographed poster .
I pray for Teresa every night along with several others children waiting for heart transplants. I love that she always has a smile on her face, she is just so cute! Hope she gets over that old cold quickly. WTG on gaining a pound!
