Home, Surgery Scheduled

We went home Thursday afternoon. Caleb had an MRA (similar to an MRI) on Thursday morning. We were a little concerned that the general anesthesia and intubation might be a rough go for him, but he came through with flying colors. We get the results of the MRA today.

Looking ahead, Caleb's Glenn operation has been scheduled for Monday, January 9, 2006. We go to the hospital on the Friday before as an outpatient to do all the pre-op stuff - blood work, EKG, etc. Then, on the morning of the ninth, Caleb will be Dr. Burke's first case. After this operation, we are hopeful that Caleb will do very, very well.
