In my mailbox this morning:

“My daughter Madison has just been diagnosed with Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return.  I’m so glad I found your story.  Please keep Madison and our family in your prayers!”

I will.  Nathan had cardiac catheterization at two, and it was determined that his PAPVR needed to be addressed surgically.  A good illustration and explanation of PAPVR can be found on the Cove Point Foundation website.  I hope you will be encouraged to read:  “Recovery from this operation is usually straightforward, requiring a hospital stay of 3 to 4 days.”  Also, note that PAPVR might not be severe enough to require surgery.  Blessings to Madison and your family.

    Thank you so much for posting this. I failed to mention she will be having surgery to correct the problem. We don’t have the details of when yet.
