Boston Schedule

We need to be at the hospital around 7:00am for some tests on December 23. On that day, Caleb will receive a chest x-ray, EKG, echo, and blood work. We'll also have a meeting with the physicians about his situation. This should all take around five hours.

The next day, Christmas Eve, Caleb will be admitted around 7:30am. He will undergo a cardiac catheterization. He will spend the night in the hospital and if all goes well, he will be released around noon on Christmas Day.

While in Boston, we plan on having a great time, enjoying a white Christmas. We will be staying with our good friends Christian and Dulce. We also hope to visit Calvary Chapel which is very close to the hospital.

Boston for Christmas

Attention all family and friends! For those who have prayed for Caleb and our family during his hospital stays of years past, we are asking for your prayer support again.

When Caleb was diagnosed with Tricuspid Atresia, it was explained to us that it would be necessary for him to have three surgeries. Three years later: two down, one to go. He is ready now for his final surgery, the Fontan operation. This is the "big" one.
We have decided to have him evaluated at Children's Hospital of Boston before we schedule this final surgery. This will take place on December 24 of this year.
Please keep our family in your prayers as we seek to do our due diligence in helping Caleb to have a healthy life.
We are also looking forward to seeing what God will do in us and through us as we take this little venture in faith.
