Wed. Jan 7 - Morning update

Just a quick update.

They got the results back from the Echocardiogram they performed yesterday on Taylor’s heart. It showed some slight improvement, and also seemed to answer some other questions. Apparently a sac of fluid or something is on the heart which indicates that the heart issues are due to a virus and they think her heart was fine when she was born. So now the doctors think that the RSV positive test may have been a false negative and that everything was caused by a virus attacking Taylor’s heart. The doctors seemed to take this as good news, and perhaps after Taylor beats this virus her heart has a chance to heal itself. We will take any good news!

Also, apparently it was the Sonogram results last night that showed indications of a brain injury and not the EEG. Although the Doctor said the Sonogram showed enough that he/she was fairly certain the EEG would show the same thing. We are praying that the EEG will come back with better news.

Jeff and Tammy are remaining positive.

Dear Jeff, Tammy, and family,
We, too, are praying for Taylor. Our God IS a God of miracles. "...with Him, all things are possible." ~Matthew 19:26 May He also grant you both strength and peace as you wait for Taylor to heal.
