Good morning everyone. Sorry I haven't posted much this week. Believe it or not, the day is here. The day is here, Katie Grace Hua Hua is actually in surgery this morning.

We are at Arnold Palmer Hospital in Orlando. The Pediatric Heart Team is amazing. A leading team in the nation. She is in good hands. Of course she is in God's hands so he guides the Drs hands so she couldn't be better off!

She is having a very large hole (VSD) repaired, along with a PDA (weak wall) repaired. The PFO (another hole) is being left alone. The main concern is her Severe Pulmonary Hypertension. This should have been taken care of a couple years ago but that was not in the plan for her. Now is her chance.

We were told this morning that they will probably have to keep her sedated and intubated for a few days after surgery due to her lungs. I wan't planning on that, but I know God has the plan in his hands. Pray for her lungs to have an amazing recovery!
