The Veterinary Practice News Family Welcomes a New Face

By Marilyn Iturri

Editor of VeterinaryPracticeNews.com and Veterinary Practice News

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some Veterinary Practice News readers may have wondered what happened to my colleague Senior News Editor Marissa Heflin.

Marissa normally writes much of our news copy and attends the big veterinary conferences. This year, however, she missed the North American and Western veterinary conferences.

Marissa is a tad sleep deprived but otherwise fine. She is halfway through a maternity leave that started a mere week before the Jan. 15 birth of her and husband Dan’s first child, a handsome son named Noah Lee.

Noah weighed in at 9 pounds, 11 ounces … a big boy to be sure, but especially so given his mom’s petite stature.

The new family is doing well, though Marissa says she could use a good night’s sleep.

More seriously, she adds, “Sleep is getting a little (emphasis on little) better. Noah is really cranky between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m.”

But he’s so cute, even his crankiness is endearing.

We expect Marissa to rejoin the team in April.
