A NORMAL LIFE?


6/97
After the surgery we were elated after our first visit with Dr. Garabedian. Zach's pulmonary pressures were normal! All the trials of the surgery and hospitalization were suddenly all worth it. We traveled to Kalispell on a softball trip, we took in a Mariners game with my dad and brother and later in the fall a SeaHawks game with my cousin Paul and his wife Andera (Zach's god parents). We took Zach to Yakima several times to visit his grandparents and family on Gina's side. Eventually Zach was doing so well we put him in day care two days a week so Gina could go back to work. There were little bumps in the road for instance at one point we changed day cares so that Zach could stay longer in the infant room before moving to the toddler room but for the most part for that wonderful year we nearly forgot there was any problem at all. For all intensive purposes we were a normal family.
