TUESDAY!

We just got back from pre-op at Arnold Palmer. After a few pokes, lots of tests, and many questions, we got the go ahead for surgery tomorrow morning. We need to be at Arnold Palmer at 6:30 am to start the sedation process. Most likely the surgery will begin around 8:30 am. Dr. DeCampli believes the surgery will last anywhere from 5-7 hours. His PA will be coming out every 1 1/2 hours to update us on Emerson's progress.
We'll be updating Emerson's recovery throughout her stay at APH. I'm assuming that I will have Grammy write the updates because I might be too emotional.
We know that Emerson is in wonderful hands and has a dedicated medical team working to make her heart healthy.
Our family is grateful for all of your support and kind words.

Emerson is such a strong little girl! She looks so cute sitting up, what great posture. She would do well at Palmetto Elementary where we always ask for Palmetto Posture. We love her so much and will be thinking of you all day. Stay strong and positive. You will be in our thoughts even more over these next few days. Granny Susan, keep us all posted. Love you guys!!!
