Three Month Mark

On January 6th, we celebrated Simi's 3 month anniversary of his open heart surgery. This day is significant in that his bones should be completely healed and he has no more restrictions on his activity. He can now climb the monkey bars or collide with school-mates on the playground without fear of injuring his breastbone.

Other than that, it was a normal day.

Simi has gained a total of 5 lbs. in the 3 months since his surgery. That's an increase of 20% over his original body weight. He looks great! If you look at him, you'd still say he's quite thin, but he's a "healthy" thin rather than a "concentration-camp victim" thin.
