Up in the Air

Well surgery will not be tomorrow, not certain it will even be this week. Our surgeon really wants to try the hybrid (open chest opposed to open heart). He did not know that there were no mesh coils available (to close off the area). Due to the weather and short holiday week, the coils may not be here in time to do surgery this week. So the plan is to shoot for early next week. Gavin will go in tomorrow for pre-op. We're still trying to weigh the options and make a decision on if we will come home or stay until surgery. Typical us, always twist and turns involved. Feeling discouraged because we want to get this behind us. Feeling hopeful because we know the surgeon is going to try everything to NOT make this an open heart procedure. They really do not want to have to stop Gavins heart. Gavins already been through this 4 times. This entire situation is just complicated and very risky. We don't want to jump the gun and want to take time to get the best case scenario for Gavin. Please continue to pray, we really need patience and peace right now.
