GOOD NEWS!!!!

We got the okay to take Porter off of oxygen on Tuesday!!! WOO HOO! We had a little bit of a scare though. Porters low heart rate kept going off for about 5days in a row at night for about a half hour to an hour. I called the doctor and they wanted to see him. I took him in and they said everything sounded fine etc. So they switched out the machine thinking maybe it was that, it still went off. I called the doctor and they sent me straight to timpanogos hospital for a chest xray and an EKG. They also had Praxair come and lower the low heart rate from 80 to 60 now. A few days later we got the results back from the hospital and the chest xray came back normal but the EKG came back abnormal. We were sent to primary children's up in SLC. We got the okay for porter to come off oxygen as long as the cardiologist said it was okay. So on Tuesday we went to meet with the cardiologist, they did another EKG.. the doctor came in and said everything looked normal. He can come off oxygen, but they sent us home with a 24 hour EKG just to be safe. We will find out the results for the in the next few weeks. Wish us luck!!
