Evie Update #2

The doctor did not find what he had hoped to find in Evie's blood vessels yesterday, which would have been growth of the vessels. Instead, some of her vessels have narrowed, and there are some areas of her lungs that are not getting enough blood. Also since her heart is on the right side of her chest, it is pushing against her right lung, and the doctor was concerned about this.

He said she may not be a candidate for the surgery we thought she would have coming up next, but he is not the chief surgeon, so we don't know. I feel like we will be saying "We don't know" fior a long time! The cardiac team will have to discuss her case at their next meeting, and I don't know when that will be with the holidays coming up.

Evie is happy to be home though, and is playing with Gavin now. She did very well during the procedure itself and in her recovery. We just need lots of prayers for her!

Yesterday in recovery, Evie took a bottle from Nana Cermak:


Then she fell asleep on Daddy:

As we get answers about her situation, we will let everyone know.
