We just spoke with Dr. Hanley. He's headed to the operating room where Isaac is now prepped and ready to go! He said that one of his right pulmonary branches had grown fine and one had blockage that he would need to work on. The left side had three pulmonary branches that have all narrowed and will need to be patched. He won't know until he gets in if they will be able to close the vsd and add the valve. If they don't add the valve, then he'll put in a shunt and we'll be back in 6 months. (urghh)
He said that it's going to be a LONG surgery...
So, we're just waiting.
And if that's now enough...my rock (Joe) chipped his tooth so bad last night that I have to drop him off at a dentist now to have it pulled. Maybe we can get them side by side beds in recovery!
I'll keep you posted when I have another update!

poor Joe!! How'd he crack his tooth???
Okay fine, i guess I'll have to spend all day on the blog since you don't wanta text your little sister!! :)
Joe just wanted some attention also, that's why he chipped his tooth. You should have told me this earlier. I would have picked on him. :)
Try and get some sleep. Give Isaac kisses for us.
Hang in there...I know this is scary. Lots of prayers are being said for you guys...sorry about Joe's tooth...that stinks...bad timing!
