Finally, some definite good news. Abe's appt. at the cardiologist today went well. His echocardiogram showed about a 25% immprovement in his numbers of ejection fraction and left ventrical size. This means his left ventrical has shrunk a little as it was so enlarged, his heart is beating stronger and is less weak (went from 27% to 47%), and she is optomistic about a full recovery of his heart! We were elated to get this news. We aren't out of the woods yet, about half way there. We pray that the medications continue to correct his heart...
Had blood drawn today for neutrophil count and some immune tests that willl take a couple weeks to get back, and urine sample to measure calcium. Will report back on results.
Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers out there, they are working!
