At the hospital...

:: ready for the echo to begin...
moments later he got an oral sleeping tonic ::
:: resting after the procedure was done ::
On Monday, March 16, doctors plan to get together to discuss when Gerad's next surgery will take place. In the meantime they were very pleased with Gerad's growth and development. Fifty percent of Hypo Plastic Left Heart patients grow new blood veins in the heart after the Norwood Surgery, which means more blood for the tiny heart to pump. During the procedure he just underwent, they clamp off these veins to disable further growth. With Gerad there was NO new growth. That means they didn't have to do more work on him and it shows that God does care. He cares even about the tiny details!
