Hi Willy !

We have great news to share, on monday we went to our cardio appointment, and Lara has reach the normal range of SF! She is now 32%-35%, can you believe it??????

Those numbers are not to acurate, because Lara was crying a lot because she was having a cramp in the hand (she have those sometimes, always in the same hand, so we have to check that), and the heart was forcing her function, it was like a stress test as the cardiologist said, and as she decrease Fursemide dose again (Lara is having only 7mg at day) we'll have to come back december 2 to check everything is good with that.
Then, we'll see real numbers but cardiologist said that there are inside the normal range for sure, no to way different.

The heart measures are the same, but when I got home, checked the report and there was 1mm less.

Mitral valve is almost perfect like they repair it, nothing to worry about that for now.

We are so happy and grateful! I'm sorry for no writing before, but we couldn't celebrate to much because Lara is having broncospasm since saturday! So we've been not that calm. She is doing better everyday but it's been hard, not eating to much and a lot of cought.

I hope she gets good soon!

But even so, I hope i'm not being stupid, but I'm really happy and even optimistic, can you believe it???

Thank you so much for everything Willy, you have so much to do with this!

I hope you are doing great and depression has gone for good.


Kind and warmest regards and happy hugs!

Aleta.

Thank you Saskia! You give me a lot of support!!!

We went last friday to check if the decrease of fursemida dosage was bad for lara, but she is good. Her SF is %32/%34, a little bit lower than the last time becase she was not crying this time. We have to como back last week of january, I hope everything keeps fine.

I was looking at the measures from diagnosis and measures from last few echos, and her heart is 1 or 2 mm smaller, BUT at diagnosis she was just four months old, and noy is almost 3 years! Just to see the echo pictures, the left chambers look so big at the diagnosis and now, they are big but not THAT big.

I hope things keepsgoing good!!!

Willy, how are you?

Hugs,

Aleta.

I am just as strong as Lara!

[Aleta]

Yes, I know you are

Hello Aleta I shared your last SF result with my Dutch friends on Facebook, I hope you do not mind

I do this to let parents know that there are treatment options other then ACE inhibiters and betablockers

Maybe you can tell my Dutch friends something about your experience so far with the heart failure protocol

You do not have to do this at all if you do not want to!!

[Aleta]

Done!

[Willy]

Excellent I hope parents with CMP kids read your message

Thank you for doing this
