It got real today

Melanie apparently had an idea of what all this would entail.  While I had no idea. I had read a lot and thought I knew but I didn’t.  I was just thinking it would be just like a cath but a little fancier which I could process and be fine with.   I’m now scared like i was for her last open heart surgery.  This will be the longest Olivia has been under general anesthesia. It could Be  over 7 hours. She could come out intubated, which would be a first. Except for her norwood , she came back intubated from that.  There is also a possibility we will find out if she is predisposed for PLE, the other monster in the scary complication closet.

Tomorrow is a big day and we are both scared like it’s open heart surgery.  What’s worse is Olivia is just as scared and we can’t tell her we are too.  She is the bravest girl I know but please please let everything go good tomorrow.

  1. Praying for all of you. Y’all are one of the strongest families I know and Olivia is one of the bravest and toughest young lady I have ever met. Have faith that God will get you through this. Tell Olivia to let her Wizzy Woof that Uncle Jeff made for her eat all her fears and even if she didn’t bring it, it doesn’t matter because it is magical! All she has to do is imagine it is eating her fears and it will happen! You’ve got this! Love you all❣️๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’❤️
