Surgery is Over
Meredith is out of surgery and has been moved to the PICU. Overall she is doing well. The plan is to keep her sedated and comfortable for the night to give her body a chance to recover from the shock of surgery. An interesting note: Meredith did not, and subsequently does not, have a VSD. We had been told by cardiologists both here and in Cleveland that she had a VSD. However, upon visual examination she did not have one. The best explanation I have been given so far is that they do not know. I have not yet spoken with our regular cardiologist, but expect to get some sort of an explanation from him.

Chip and Stephanie,
Praise be to God! Mom and I are so very thankful to God that the surgery went well. We and many of our friends and family continue to pray for a full and complete recovery. Mom and I are also praying for all of your other children too.
As for the VSD not being there, I am thankful for God's intervention on Meredith's behalf and I am grateful for the knowledge and skill that God gave to Dr. Hawkins and his surgical team.
Mom and I love you both.

I called mom yesterday afternoon to see if we knew anything and heard the details I just read. I thought about you all day and had a constant prayer for you and your family and the dr as well. I am so happy that everything went better than anticipated. Our kids even remembered to give thanks at prayer last night. What a blessing...Love to you Chip and Steph
