Possible Operation Tomorrow
The doctors have decided that they would like to attempt to close up Haven’s chest and sternum tomorrow if they can. This operation (technically #4) should not be nearly as complicated as any of the procedures she has had up to this point, but an operation nonetheless. She had a good day yesterday. Sometime early this morning her heart began racing faster (not ideal) and developed an irregularity in the rhythmic pattern. The doctors are watching it closely today and are hoping to get that irregularity under control before tomorrow’s operation. Her blood pressure has been slightly lower today as well. So there have been some concerns today, but given the couple of good days she has had, hopefully she’ll come out of it alright so they can go ahead with closing her up tomorrow.

I saw Haven last night and can testify that she looked very well (considering her condition).
She seemed ready to get zipped up and pack her bags.
Hope to see you at home soon Haven!
