Praise the Lord!! Cassiana has had a wonderful first day of life! She is stable and doing well.

This morning Cassiana had another echo to look at her heart some more. They don't think that her great vessels are malposed as previously thought but will do repeat echos over the next few days to continue to look at her heart structure and function. All the other diagnoses were still seen on the echo. The surgical team will decide later this week what the plan is for her.

(Malposed great vessels means that the great vessels have an abnormal positioning but currently they think that they are positioned as they should be.)

Cassiana is a very quiet baby. She spends all her time resting. I've only seen her open her eyes half-way once today. The nurses say that they don't hear her cry except occassionally she will make a tiny whimper when getting her diaper changed.
