Eli’s surgery is complete. He’s getting set up in the PICU. We’re gonna go see him in about a half hour. Hopefully he does well in his recovery. If so, he could be off the ventilator tomorrow or the next day.

The heart portion of the surgery is done and they’re closing him up right now. He’ll be done in about 30-40 minutes.

Eli is out of our hands. The surgery is scheduled to be about three hours once they get him sedated. They’ll let us know when surgery actually starts.

Today is the Day

We’re up way too early. It’s almost 5am. We’ve already eaten and showered and will be on our way to the hospital shortly. Surgery is scheduled to start at 7:30, but we need to be there at six. We’ll be posting updates here as we get them throughout the day. Thank you for your prayers.
