ECHO today

Today we traveled to Beckley for Dalton’s second echocardiogram. They put three sticky things on him and attached cords, then did an ultrasound of 3 different areas.  It was so amazing to be able to see and hear his heart.  The process lasted about a half an hour and he had to lay down the whole time. He was good most of the time, but there were many times when it took Tim and I both holding him down and my mom trying to keep his attention.  Of course we had to get him ice cream soon after J The ECHO has to be sent to a pediatric cardiologist and then the results are sent to his pediatrician.  The last time it took about 2-3 weeks for the results to get to us.
