Number 5

Tomorrow we check in at 6am for a 7am surgery. Gavins surgeon, his surgeon partner and the cardiologist will all be in the operating room. Gavin is the only case for the day. This will be Gavins 5th major heart surgery. He's had a total of 3 open heart surgeries (Norwood, Glenn and Fontan) and 1 open chest (pacemaker). The difference between open heart and open chest is the lung bypass machine where they have to stop his heart. If Gavin only has to have the open chest procedure he will not have to be put on lung bypass. Please pray with us that the hybrid will work. While we're super bummed it even came to this, we're believing and knowing there will be complete healing for our Gavin. God has brought him so far. He is tough, he is strong, he is resilient. We're so proud of his unwavering courage and strength. Pray for peaceful rest for all of us as tomorrow will be a long day. 

The sweet hotel staff hooked Gavin up with lots of dessert tonight!
