		<description>Oh I forgot I was going to ask if you have heard of Paul Cardell. I was following his blog for awhile. He titles it Living for Eden here is the link.

http://mytricuspidatresia.blogspot.com/

He just recently got his heart transplant.
He is a pianist. Anyway he is amazing and always so positive if you ever have a minute you should check out his blog.

He has a touching heart surgery picture on his site by a Christian artist Nathan Greene, it shows the sergeons working on a someone&#039;s heart with Christ looking over their shoulder guiding them.</description>

		<description>I just wanted to say thank you for sharing and agree with Jen, thank you for the reminder. Iknow to be thankful for my kids and health but we have always had good health so I do take it forgranted and I need to not. I have three under 5 and being a monther has been so challenging for me, I know it is for every mom. Thanks for reminding me to love my crazy kids more. All of you who have been through things like this are amazing and I look up to you all for that, Amy B you are amazing too I am sure! I will count my blessings a little more, thank you.</description>

		<description>happy birthday Matthew!! (today is also one of my nephews&#039; birthday and I got the gift of a new niece this eventing, too!) :)
I find that it is hard to remember to be thankful each and every day that our kids wake up breathing when they don&#039;t have any medical problems, so your story is just another reminder of how precious life is and what a blessing our children are to us. Each and every day with them is truly a gift from God and I just feel awful when I think how much I take for granted in that area. Thank you for reminding me that today was a gift and tomorrow will be, too. :)</description>
