When we returned, December 13, 2007, for the follow-up appointment, guess what, we were once again, admitted immediately. Do not pass go, go directly to Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) because he did not improve. In fact it was determined that he needed, Permanent Pacemaker Placement. It was known that he would eventually need a pacemaker somewhere around his teenage years; it ended up being much sooner rather than later.
Since that last discharge on 12/25/07, thank God, we have not had any hospitalizations. He has to undergo one more surgery, the Fontan.
