Something the Lord Made

A lot of people have asked about tetralogy of fallot (or blue baby syndrome) and what it is. There are different variations and Dylan has one of the worst kinds. You can visit this website to get a technical answer: http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=11071

We also found out about a movie about the very first tet surgery performed (this kind of surgery was actually the first heart surgery EVER performed!) It is called, “Something the Lord Made.” It is a HBO film and their website has testimonials of other families with kids with tet: http://www.hbo.com/films/stlm/

The “BT Shunt” is what was placed in Dylan’s heart when he was only 3 days old and it saved his life. I think the movie is perfectly titled because I feel like God played the biggest role in saving Dylan’s life.

Please continue to keep him in your prayers!
