The verdict is in. The cardiologists meant with the surgeons and they all agreed that Hannah needed to have her surgery soon. The day is this Wednesday the 14th.
I am so full of emotion at the moment and feel scatter brained. She will be on a ventilator and in the PICU for 3-4 days and then in post op for another 3-4 days... so worst case scenario (unless something goes really wrong) she will be in the hospital post op for about 2 weeks.
I am not sure where we had our information from but the surgery its self should take no longer than 4 hours. They don't even like keeping babies under for that long.
At this moment that is what I have for you all as far as updates go. I don't know what else to say.... my emotions are all over the place. I am grateful that this is happening since she needs it... and this is what I wanted... at least that's what I thought. At the same time I am feeling nervous and a little scared and when Wednesday comes I am sure I will have an entire new wave of emotions to battle with.
I know it is going to be okay... I have had a feeling of peace and comfort from the time Hannah was born.
We will keep the updates coming as needed.
Love,
Sam

Oh Sam -- we are praying for you and your sweet Hannah. Please do not hesitate to call with anything you need. We are here for you.
Sam-
We will be thinking and praying for you on Wednesday. If you need ANYTHING let me know.
Sam and Ricky,
We're praying for you and your family. You're so great and you're such an example of faith. Thank you for that.
You are in our thoughts and prayers!
Your faith and endurance continues to be an example of the wonderful children of our Father that you are. As I read your post, these scriptures came to me, I hope you don't mind. "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace..." (Jerm. 29:11) and "We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called..." (Rom. 8:28)Your faith and examples have touched us all. With much love, jj
We're here...for anything. We'll be praying for your family, your little one and her doctors. Amor is right...you're a great example of faith.
We're pulling for you too! We'll be on our knees in prayer too. We're all waiting and willing to help out.
