The Trouble Maker

This is her old heart shown to us by Dr. Wallis today. He said it was extremely enlarged that a normal heart should be half this size of this one. Keith said  the texture reminded him of a big pot roast. He was able to point out the defects she was born with and the devices that over the years they inserted such as closures devices to close up the wholes in her heart. Below is the video of him explaining it to us.

That's so awesome you're able to see Rachel's heart. What's even more awesome, though, is that Rachel has a new heart. Keep up the good recovery work!

Amazing video. I'll have to draw Dawn's next valentine "heart" a little differently next year (and use some different colors).
