new news

We just found out that Everetts' surgon Dr. Bove is going to be going over all the data he has on Ev and give us his recomendation for the specifics of the sugery on monday. This is a very tough decision as some things have changed recently, and it is not as cut and dry as we had hoped. I believe that he will likely recomend that we do; the doubble switch, a small "helper" fix on the tricuspid valve, and a pace maker, but that is only my thought on what he may want to do. We wont know for sure until monday. Thank you all who are reading this and keeping us in your thoughts and prayers, we can use all the good energy we can get from the the U.P. Kora and I are doing all we can to keep it together and it helps so much to know that so many people are pullin for our little man. Thank you all!

working on more pics, info update tues morn

The Plan...

Here we are in Ann Arbor, Grandmas Terri, And Kay, down here to help Kora, Everette and myself. So far we have had relatively good news, as his 2 VSD's have nearly closed up on their own. The more critical situations with the double switch, pulmonary band adjustment, and probably pace maker will be decided on Monday evening after Everette's heart catheter is complete. I will update this page Tuesday morning after the docs do their rounds and we decide on the specific course of action. Thanks to all of you out there that have supported us through this incredibly tough time. Your help and support have made this devistating situation more manageable for Everette, Kora, and myself. Thank you sooooo much!
