Big Day

The big day is here for Lynnlee. We are in the waiting room while she is in surgery. She went back about an hour ago. The surgery will take about 6 hours so it's going to be a long day and a long time before we see her again.

Here are some links about her open heart surgery if you are interested. The surgery is called "Fontan" named after the doctor who started it. They have been doing this surgery since 1968 and it has gotten better over the years so that's comforting.

Lynnlee was great this morning before going back. She played with toys and was happy as can be.
Stay tuned for more updates to come.
