Mighty MikeyD
went back to CHOP last week for his check up with Dr. Vetter and some testing
of his defibrillator and pace maker. MikeyD's Defibrillator had no activity on
it which is good. MikeyD does have some damage to the left ventricular from the Sudden
Cardiac Arrest one of the valves has a slight leak, Dr.Vetter will follow it
closely to see if it gets worse. The big scar on his chest is looking better.
While we were at CHOP we met Dr. Iyer he is the surgeon who installed the built
in defibrillator in MikeyD heart. The last time Dr. Iyer had seen MikeyD he was
paralyzed in a wheel chair and could not talk. He had read all the neurological
reports that said he would never have the use of his hands or arms. When Dr.
Iyer walked in the exam room MikeyD gave him a strong firm handshake you could
see the doctors face light up. When we were leaving Dr.Iyer came over to me and
said I cannot believe he is using his hands and arms he was truly amazed.
This Wednesday
January 15th was MikeyD’s Birthday.
We thank God
every day that he is still here with us.
MikeyD had a great surprise visit for his Birthday.
The whole Middletown High School North Basketball team and coaches
came to the house to celebrate MikeyD’s Birthday! They gave him the best
present he could ever get.
That meant more to MikeyD and my family than they will ever know.
Coach Mark use to coach MikeyD and I could tell by the smile how happy he was
to see Coach Mark again. We would like to thank all the players the coaches and
the Cerbo family for all that they have done for MikeyD that night. You guys
have no idea how happy you made him.
We will be forever grateful.
Then on Saturday MikeyD had another big celebration with Family
and friends.
Everyone can wish MikeyD a Happy Birthday right here and we will
read them to him.
