I Heart my girl

3 Sep 2014


Just a quick post. 

Ella had her yearly cardiac review today. It soon comes around! I know I’ve said this before, but it’s still the appointment I worry about the most and the one I lose sleep over. I doubt that will ever change. 

Ella was a star, she waited and played nicely in the waiting room and didn’t get too stressed having the tests done (thanks to the handy distraction of a Mr Tumble DVD and mummy posting chocolate buttons in her mouth during said tests!). 
We had left Lucy at nursery so I just had Ella with me. It was lovely to be able to spend time with just her and also to give her my undivided attention – something she very rarely gets.

After an ECG, ECHO and a quick chat with the doctor I am pleased to report that all is fine and we don’t need to go back until February 2016! 

Go Ella! Xx

Our first baby, Ella Mary, was born at the end of November 2010. We were shocked to find out soon after her birth that she has Down's Syndrome. I was determined from the start that Down's Syndrome will never define Ella or what she is able to do. We will provide for her everything she needs to become the child and the person she deserves to be. There will be hard times ahead.... there are already many hard times behind us. But I already know that the good times will always outweigh the hard times. She has taught me so much in such a short time and seeing life from a new perspective is a privilege that not many of us get the chance to experience.
