Journey to China

This blog documents the Spitlers' progress towards the adoption of Xia Ping He (Noah Spitler) from the PR China. It also documents Noah's medical process in pursuit of a total repair to his CHD (congenital heart defect).

Healthy Noah (Discharged!)




 More great news today, friends, as Noah’s echocardiogram came back “good” and he was able to leave the hospital! We are back at the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford and Noah’s resting after a big lunch. 

Thank you all for your prayers and for the Lord’s gracious favor on Noah. We lack the words to sufficiently appreciate the staff at LPCH and Dr. McElhinney’s team - all super professional and talented! It was bittersweet to leave the hospital, but Noah never looked back. 

Noah was told to watch for some pain in the chest and his legs where the catheters were inserted, but nothing a little Tylenol wouldn’t manage. He was given a few restrictions on exertion but told to expect an energy boost to be apparent in a week- now that the blood flow to his lungs is no longer restricted. 

Praise God from Whom all blessing flow!

Ps. From the photo above you can see the sedation wore off and Noah quickly returned  to “harassing” his Mom. 😏
