Pre-op day

The pre-op day today went well. Audra is a true sleep fighter. But we have known that :) She did really well until our meeting with the doctor doing her cath at the end of the day. She was cranky, hungry and over being at the hospital. Fortunately, a yummy snack did the trick but we could tell that our doctor prefers the cath lab to crying kids. 

At the echo, they were able to see flow on her left pulmonary artery. This is a good thing! It increases the chances that the doctor tomorrow will not have to do an intervention. We will not know for sure until they are doing the cath tomorrow morning so please continue to keep Audra in your prayers and thoughts!

We have an early morning tomorrow as Audra's cath is first case - meaning she goes first. The doctor expects that her cath will last 3 hours, which is on the shorter side of the estimate. We are not banking on this but it is good to hear. Our bags are packed in case we have to stay overnight and it is an early bedtime for our entire household. The hospital is tiring!

Thank you for your continued love and support! We will update as soon as we have a chance tomorrow. 

All the best!
