My PJRT Sisters and Brothers

It's 2017 and time for this year's CHD Awareness week!  I'm happy to announce a few of our PJRT brothers and sisters again this year!  Some new, some returning for a spotlight from 3 years ago, all loved and cherished by Miss K and I as dear friends.


CHD Awareness Week Day 4:

Meet Riley:
Riley was diagnosed in utero at 34 weeks gestation and born via c-section at 36 weeks.  Initial thought was SVT so he was started on Propranolol, at 4 weeks old he was in SVT for almost 24 hours, he was admitted and after failed attempts of adenosine he cardioverted himself, he was then started on Amiodarone along with the Propranolol and has been controlled since with only a few short breakthrough episodes.  He is now 14 months old and thriving.  His next appointment in March they will look to admit Riley to take him off the Amiodarone and replace it with something else.

CHD Awareness Week Day 3:

Meet Thayer
Thayer is 13 months old and was diagnosed with PJRT at 8 weeks old.  He just recently switched meds to Flecanide and is doing much better now.  Nothing slows him down, he is such a sweet boy!

CHD Awareness Week Day 2: 

Meet Liam:
Liam was diagnosed with PJRT at 2.5 years old, which happens to be just more than a month ago.  He's finally responding to the medications after numerous dosage increases, although he's still in his abnormal episodes but they've decreased significantly!  They've spoken about ablation and in March will hopefully find out more about this option for Liam.



 CHD Awareness Week Day 1:

Meet Violet:
Violet was Diagnosed with PJRT at just 4 days old.  Today they have better control over all but she is still being monitored very closely.
