Here's Leigha's post

Recently, Evelyn had a cardiology appointment to check on her heart. At the appointment, I was very tense and on edge, just wanting everything to be okay. The doctor turned to me after listening to heart and told me "the murmur is gone. Your daughter's heart is 100%. No restrictions on activity level and we don't need to see you back. " I literally exploded with tears. I cried so hard my daughter got worried, climbed into my lap and gave me a hug "mommy, dont be sad. I okay". Evelyn is now two years old, in perfect health, and her favorite thing to do is dance to music and snuggle with me. Thank you for following this journey. She's okay folks!
