Following a high risk pregnancy and extremely long labor, the doctors and nurses were very quiet upon her delivery – Cassidy Jane was blue and quiet. She was born with severe Pulmonary Stenosis and was flown out of Kimball Hospital in Lakewood by helicopter five hours after her delivery over to the Cardiac ICU at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. After five days of monitoring she was taken in for heart surgery and received a balloon catheterization.
Cassidy continues to have follow-up visit; so far, each visit has been a steady thumbs up from a central NJ pediatric cardiologist.
