Still Stable

I just checked on Sam via phone. He is still stable and they are still successfully weening him off of all of the meds they pumped him full of last night. Still on the vent, still sedated. They are going to do the Glenn surgery (the one we originally had scheduled for April) as well as a procedure to fix this 'Tet Spell' that he had yesterday all in one shebang on Monday or Tuesday at the latest. They said he will have preference in the OR...they will bump all the scheduled surgeries back so that he can have his surgery whenever the surgeon is ready. Hopefully we will get more details on that tomorrow.

In the mean time, Chris and I (who haven't slept since Thursday night) are going to bed. The hospital set us up with a room at the Ronald McDonald house up here. It is brand spankin new and BEAUTIFUL! They are all super nice here and very accommodating. We are well taken care of. We are also being taken care of by our fabulous neighbors back in Macon. They are watching our house and the dog, and have offered tons and tons of support. We will never be able to find the words to thank them enough.

And thank EVERYONE for the prayers...Sam is thriving thanks to them and God. Will update in the morning!

Chris and Kathy,
Josh and I will definitely be praying for you guys and Sam this week. I will ask my mom and her congregation to pray too. We know it works and it truly sounds like those "coincidences" were evidence that God is holding y'all in his hands. Know that we're here for you and thinking of you.
Love,
Kimberly
