Update on Cody

So just to update everyone on Cody. We went to Cook Children's Hospital last week to have stent put in his aorta. It went sooo well. We want to thank everyone for their prayers and thoughts while he was having his procedure done. They had to put a catheter through his groin and up to the arch in the aorta. It was the size just a little larger than the diameter of a straw. Ouch. We have a video of it but I can't figure out how to get it off our CD and on here. These pictures will just have to do. I hope you're not squeemish. I thought it was way cool! His biggest problem is the groin area. He is still pretty sore there. I think he just overdoes it at school everyday. But anyway, he is doing well and we are so excited for him to get back to regular activity and move on from this.

It's amazing the things that technology and science can do for the body! I was so impressed with our doctor. He was amazing!
