So glad she's doing well.

The things they can do for babies and little kids is just amazing... my niece had open heart surgery when she was 2 years old (she had an artery that wasn't big enough so they had to enlarge it) and less than a month after surgery, she was strutting down the isle for my (first) wedding.... that was 19 years ago.

Take care...you and your wife need a lot of rest.... before you know it, Shelby will be home then running around before you know it!
