So very scared

In addition to Hailey's Glenn today, she will also be getting her tricuspid valve replaced with a mechanical valve. It is so rare to have these valves in babies Hailey's size, they searched high and low just for her and founhd her a valve (which costs close to $20,000!!! Thank god for insurance!). This also increases the mortality rate to 40% from this surgery. pray pray pray for little Hailey. Here is a picture of her new valve.


 

I'm so scared that she may not come back from the OR today. They are currently placing all her IV lines and the actual surgery will begin around 10:30 pacific time. I will post another update as I get them. 

Thank you for your prayers!

  5. "God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea."

    As I read this verse this morning, your family was the first to pop into my head. Thank you for keeping an update going. My prayers will be before the Lord all day today for you and your little Hailey. May God be your refuge and stregth in the days to come.
