Surgery Update: 10:00pm - Wait and See

The good news is that Evie did just fine during the procedure to replace her conduit/shunt with a larger one. Now we're back to where we started from a few hours ago: the docs are going to slowly wean her off of the heart and lung machine and hope that her lungs relax and that her body can pump enough oxygenated blood to her lungs with the help of this new, larger conduit tube. The nurse will talk to us again in an hour and hopefully will have good news for us.

Lots of prayers and warm thoughts for precious Evie and both of you as well. I've been thinking about you all day and will continue to do so. Please know that you can call if you ever need help watching Gavin. I'd love to see my "little friend"! Love and hugs to you both! - Laura (and my parents as well!)
