Surgery Updates

This is Rachel, Michelle's sister...she asked me to update you for a few days until she's up to snuff. Bob has been texting today, but I haven't had a chance to sit down until now. I'll just post word for word what he sent:

7:38 AM We have commended Michelle to the care of the Doctors. She wanted me to thank you all for your prayers. More as I know.

11:56 AM The Doctors are working on Michelle's heart. She is tolerating the surgery well. More as I know.

1:41 PM Vitals are still stable. Ablation (May's procedure) is done. Working on second part of Fontan conversion. Decreased size of right atria. More to come.

3:00 PM She is off the bypass machine. Pacemaker is installed. Doctors making sure bleeding has stopped. Surgery is virtually over. More to come.

5:11 PM Sugery is over and was a sucess! She's recovering in the ICU. Thank you all for your prayers. Please pray for a fast complication free recovery.


9:38 PM Michelle is awake, alert and talking. The doctors are pleased with her recovery. The Lord's name be praised.
