Gavin's Cath Update

This is Kristen. Dr. Overholt just came out and gave us an update on Gavin. Gavin has coronary fistulas where his underdeveloped ventricle is pulling blood. They injected Gavin with isopryl  that made his heart race like he was mimicking exercise. In short...during exercise Gavin has blood flowing into his under developed left ventricle, technically where no blood is needed. This is complicated for the docs, they haven't seen hardly any one specific case they can remember like this, so they are going to reach out to other cardiologist and surgeons to come up with a game plan. This isn't a routine fix, so they need to seek out more guidance. If the fix can't be done through a heart cath, then we would plan for another open heart surgery, but not like any of his previous surgeries. This one would not be as complex. In the meantime, no exercise for Gavin. Please continue to keep Gavin, Faith, Adam, and the doctors in your prayers.
