Prayers and positive thoughts hold a lot of weight--I'm convinced G-d hears....
The wee one (pictured looking a bit medicated this a.m. with Ella Stuffie--the one Nana says he can't be without!) went in for surgery at 8:30am was finished at 2pm and moved to recovery at 2:30. The booger took less time getting step 1 (of 3 heart surgeries) done than his Nana did getting a broken leg fixed. :-/ I'd be a little envious, but I'm so flipping relieved I can't be anything but.......relieved....and grateful.
The surgeons were pleased with how surgery went. They'll leave his wee chest opened for 2-3 days before closing it back up. They put a drain in his tummy where fluid had been collecting and they're running tests to make sure there's no reason for concern. The next 24-48 hours are still high risk--it's that delicate balancing act with medications in a wee person. I'll try to remain hopeful-- The stinker has this deal about drama. Time and time again....JUST when you think you can breathe and relax a minute....more drama.....
For the moment, I'll try to remain grateful and relieved for THIS moment to have ended with success.

Our whole church prayed for him on Wednesday night Mel. Prayers will continue, what a strong little guy!!!!
I'm sure this is exhausting for the whole family- praying for peace and love for all of you!
Thank you--to all of you and to all of those others who prayed and sent positive thoughts his way.
