Pre-Op Echo

Dr Marx said Diego’s left ventricle wall is as thick as ours (an adult). He truly couldn't believe it. His overall physical growth completely surprised him...it came at the perfect time. The heart cath on Monday will confirm everything.  Dr. Marx feels very confident that his LV will adjust easily to the increased pressures of the double switch.  

I believe with all my heart that Diego’s efforts to remain physically active this past year, his determined soccer coach that knew exactly how much to push and his mother’s obsession with healthy eating has set Diego up for a huge surgical success.
