Thank you so much for that valuable information, and I’ve passed it on.

You're welcome. I got that advice directly from the heart surgeon. My son's surgeries occurred at age 5, 10, 15 and 17. He will turn 27 in about 10 days. The surgeon said they nearly always see depression after open heart surgery and they have no explanation. It always passes as well. Good luck!

Thanks so much. Your son is strong, and God bless you both.
