Anyway, they went to Minneapolis last week and got some good news:
-Surgery is no longer completely necessary. There is a medication that can be given to June Bug after she is born that will help and possibly eliminate the need for surgery. She will need to be closely monitored for a few weeks and the specialist will determine when she can be removed from the medication. So this is wonderful news!!
And then they went to Duluth this Tuesday and heard some more good news:
We were encouraged talking to our maternal fetal medicine doctor in Duluth. She was not concerned with Junebug's growth. Although it is slow (about 10% behind), it is not falling sharply away from the norm. So this means that the heart defect is not causing a serious development challenge. Also, Dr. O'Day suggested we cancel our trip to Abbott hospital in Minneapolis on May 2 because they can do the same tests in Duluth.

I believe this is in answer to prayer. And, I still am praying and believing that Junebug will be born with a normal heart and aorta. I encourage you to believe and pray, too.
