Good Day

Cataleya had her surgery yesterday, and it went very well!! The Dr does not think she will need the extra surgery to re-do the Pulmonary Artery Bands that were placed in January. He does think we'll need to move up her next surgery from August to June. That surgery is called a Bidirectional Glenn Shunt and it is very complicated and terrifying. However, if none of the awful possibilities that I'm reading about online happen, it will take pressure off her heart and lungs long enough for her to grow and get ready fort he final surgery.

We stayed in the hospital overnight. Cataleya slept pretty much the whole time. We're home now and waiting for a call from the person who will schedule the Glenn Shunt.

It was a good day.
