Testing, Testing, Testing

So....It was a very long day at the hospital but everything went well. Alyssa was suprisingly pleasant despite her dislike for doctors. We toured the hospital(although we're hardly strangers to the place) and Alyssa had blood tests, x-rays, etc.... We talked extensively about the surgery and what to expect before, during, and after. The average patient has a 5-7 day hospital stay. While Alyssa may require slighly longer than that, we are hopeful that it will be a relatively short stay. Finally, we feel confident that everything will go well and our little angel's heart will be successfully repaired!

Bumped Again

Just want to let you all know that Alyssa's surgery has been bumped yet again!!! She is now scheduled for Tuesday, July 17th due to a scheduling conflict at Rainbow's. She will have surgery at noon. Today is her preadmission testing, so I will update everyone later. Thanks for the comments, thoughts, and continued prayers.
