If it makes you feel any better it isn't classified as a surgery :) I remember calling it that when I was on the phone with the nurse and she said "well it's not a surgery" I said "what do I call it then?" she said "a procedure!" LOL It actually did make me feel somewhat better to know it wasn't actually surgery! <BR/><BR/>They go in through the groin and wind that up to the heart where they put a coil in to close it. I can send you the link to my blog post I did when Kayla had this done if you want to see it. <BR/><BR/>It was outpatient and we left several hours later, however we had to stay in a hotel that night since this was done in Albuquerque which was 3 hrs from home -they didn't want us traveling so far and for Kayla to be sitting in a car seat for that long.<BR/><BR/>Kayla was really tired and groggy afterwards and she tried to walk but kept falling down and getting pissed LOL <BR/><BR/>Praying all well go smoothly for Ella!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02441176684416139172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472224025094243451.post-48757617902696557862008-11-12T04:49:00.000-08:002008-11-12T04:49:00.000-08:00We'll be praying for you guys!!

It sure is a blessing that they found this stuff, that they're being so careful, and that they're going to take action for what's best for Ella. (Dumb TX doctors...) Hang in there!!<BR/>Thanks for the congrats! We put Fairchild on our dreamsheet, but we're pretty sure they're sending us to Cannon. We find out details today...! (FYI, Cannon was not on our dreamsheet...but I guess God knows! It will be closer to my family at least!) :)<BR/>Love and miss you guys!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09973859198481333200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472224025094243451.post-31874265312832015252008-11-11T21:19:00.000-08:002008-11-11T21:19:00.000-08:00Well I guess this progress right?

So at what point do the Dr.'s in Texas have to be responsible for not getting it right the first time. <BR/><BR/>I'm sure Rebecca can give you the heart anatomy lesson on Friday. I think she has the whole thing down. Plus she can give you the skinny on the surgeons since that is where Elliot goes too.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02416512091918969106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472224025094243451.post-80400042531519743732008-11-11T19:18:00.000-08:002008-11-11T19:18:00.000-08:00Congrats on the seat on the board!

Sounds like the hospital staff has everything under control with Ella's surgery. We were not surprised to hear that they were going to go ahead and close it simply because of the oxygenation issues it can cause. We will definitely be thinking of you all and praying for a great outcome.
