Surgery Tomorrow
Corey and I were given two options for procedures that they could perform on Lynnea tomorrow. I had hoped to get pictures up here to help explain both of them, but I don't have the time to do that right now. We chose the Hybrid Procedure, which is a very new procedure, but overall seems a little less risky than the Norwood Procedure the doctors offered as another option, and the recovery time should be shorter. The Hybrid Procedure has only been done three times at this hospital, but all three were successful, and all three children have gone on to have the second surgery that will also be required for Lynnea. Lynnea will have surgery tomorrow (Thursday) morning at 10am. The surgeon expects to be finished around 3pm.

Hi Tina and Corey. We have been checking back frequently to check on Lynnea's progress. Thank you for doing this blog! We will keep all of you, especially your sweet baby in our prayers. I'm going to be thinking about this all day and look forward to an update later today. Laurie, Keith, Jonah, Jacob and Caleb Kenyon
