A year ago today we were in Denver at Children's Hospital for all of Mia's pre-surgery appointments in preparation for her Glenn (second open heart surgery) on March 1st. We stayed the night in a hotel across the street from the hospital. Izzy kissed her sister and said her goodbyes the night before as we had to wake up extremely early the following day. Makes me tear up just thinking about it. I can't believe it's been a year. Sometimes it seems like just yesterday, sometimes it seriously feels like eternity. And what might you ask are we doing to celebrate? We're going to Children's in Broomfield for Mia's monthly clinic appointment. Hopefully the appointment will be uneventful. With each monthly appointment, we draw nearer to Mia's Fontan surgery. I am already dreading that day, but I also just want it to be done with. Fingers crossed that the Fontan will be the last of open heart surgeries for quite some time. But as we know too well, life is unpredictable...
