Bentley's Heart-March 6, 2018

Since moving to Tracy, I have realized that a lot of people aren't aware of Bentleys heart. Not that I don't want people to know, I just have a hard time bringing it up. Before I update his condition, I'll just give a little background on what it is. Bentley was born with a rare heart condition called Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (cctga).The easy way to explain it is the arteries on his heart are switched, the larger artery which is supposed pump blood to his body, is pumping blood to his lungs, and the smaller artery which is supposed to pump blood to his lungs, is pumping the blood to his body.  Cctga comes in 3 forms and Bentley has the most rare. His Cctga also causes him to have a heart block, which just means his the top and bottom of his heart aren't beating in sync, causing his heart to beat at a slower rate.  Most of the times when diagnosed with Cctga kids have other major issues with their hearts and need open hear

Family Update!

Family: We have been doing fantastic! To start off we Moved! Alex's work bought a new building that had an apartment above it. It is a 2 bedroom so there is plenty of room for the three of us. It is also cheaper rent and we are allowed to have pets! So my family drove my cat Lovey all the way from New Mexico to be with us :) We are enjoying our new ward and are enjoying the nice weather by going on walks to the parks around us. Our sweet kitty Lovey! We also Blessed Bentley and we had lots of family come for his blessing, Alex did a beautiful job and gave such a sweet blessing to our boy. Justin also came to visit! It was fun having him here. We also were able to talk to Dalton on Mothers Day! We did a whole family Skype, it was so fun to have all of us together, and Dalton is doing so good in Brazil.
