"WE will PRAISE you FOREVER for what you have done; in your name WE will hope, for your name is good. WE will PRAISE you in the presence of YOU!" Psalm 52:9
Alfred and Maranatha just returned from meeting with Dr. Frasier.
The "zipper" is being sewed up and everything is GREAT! The update is below:
*Only on bypass for 50 minutes
*Did not have to stop his heart
*Trimmed away the muscle of the right ventricle b/c it was enlarged
*Able to put in a small adult conduit (18 millimeter)
*Attempting to take the breathing tube out now
*MAY be in PICU only one night
*For a Truncus child, Bear looks "very good"
*Arteries have developed well
*Didn't have to have a blood transfusion
*Doesn't anticipate that he'll have to have a transfusion at all
*Possibly get to see him within the next hour
*Prayerfully he will be in a regular room in 24 hours
PRAISE Jesus from whom ALL blessings flow!
Please pray tonight that WHEN Bear wakes up that he is not fearful or scared but rather at peace and calm. Another update to come soon!
Praise Him! Praise Him! Overwhelmed with tears full JOY! Thank you JESUS! We will continue to pray for Bear as he wakes up and through the recovery process. Big hugs to Alfred and Mara!

ReplyDeleteWe must put GOD on display for the world see. We are tested (tempted) like God tested Abraham with Issac Gen.22. We must understand that God knows best and answers the prayers of his children. May God Bless and we are praying for your family. The May Family Lepanto,AR
