First surgery

Isaac has his first surgery scheduled for 8:30 this morning to close off the PDA in his heart.
It is not like a normal heart surgery cracking open the rib cage and all they will go in his
side/back through a small hole and since the picc line didn't work because his veins are just
too fragile they will put a line in his chest through the same place they do the surgery so it
will be as minimally invasive as you can get with a preemie so as not to cause stress and
bleeding in his brain. Well I'm off to fight traffic and sign consent forms. Thanks for all the
prayers.
