2PM Update

The repair is finished and all looks well right now. Thank GOD!.  There was limited bleeding that they addressed.  The echo looks good so they are beginning to close up Cadens chest.  Dr. Tweddell, while he was in there, addressed the tricuspid valve regurgitation by adding a stitch.  Everything seems to have gone to plan so far and we are overwhelmed with all the support and just the events of the day.

We received a really great visit from our friend Nurse Suzie.  She informed us that she has dropped her other cases to pick up Caden.  What this means is Caden will be cared for by one of the same nurses that cared for him after the Norwood and the Glenn.  Between Nurse Suzie and Dr. Nancy, Caden will be in the best hands possible.

We are now praying that Caden comes out of surgery off the ventilator.  We will update again soon.
