Done

Dr. Gremmels just came and talked to us and things look good. They got everything done they wanted to and the little man did great.
Elijah just had his breathing tube removed and he's in recovery. We'll get to see him soon when he's moved upstairs.

The G-man said they'll keep watching overnight but he expects to be able to send us home right away tomorrow.

Thanks again for all the support and prayer, one more step is behind us!

Glad to hear that things went well. Those pesky pulmonary arteries! I know Mommy and Daddy are anxious to see their little man. Prayers that the night is peaceful.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!! We have been thinking about you guys all day. One more obstacle out of the way. There is no stopping your little man! Give him a high five from Sam and Eli.

Miss you guys,
Katie and the boys

I've been gone all weekend - so I read surgery and flipped - I was relieved to see that it was a cath (I was thinking full-blown surgery) and to read that everything has gone well so far. We'll definitely keep you all in our prayers.

I know you are relieved! Try and get some sleep tonight...I bet you have a grumpy bug on your hands tomorrow. Isaac can't stand it when he wakes up from his caths...
Congratulations!
Grow PA's Grow!!!

I am so happy that all went so well in the surgery today. He is such a strong little man and his mommy & daddy are amazingly strong as well. I can't wait to hear that you guys have made it home...

Big Heart Hugs,
Samantha
