Claudia's heart surgery
I posted a few weeks ago that my 4yo daughter had been scheduled for heart
surgery on 6/25 and that it had been postponed. Well, they did the surgery yesterday and she was moved out of the PICU this morning, a little more than 24 hours after the surgery (probably would have been sooner but they didn't have a room ready in pediatrics). She's doing GREAT and I wouldn't be surprised if they discharged her tomorrow. I think it was all done with microsurgery, the incision is pretty small, more like closed-heart surgery than open heart surgery because they didn't have "crack" her chest open to do it. Some of the other kids in the PICU weren't doing so good, so please continue to pray for all of them. Leigh in raLeigh

I'm so pleased she's recovering so fast even though some of the other children aren't. -- Cheryl DS#1 (Mar 99), DS#2 (Oct 00) DD born 30 Jul 02
