Hospital Update - 4

There was quite a bit of bleeding before the doctor even managed to cut through the sternum. Apparently her heart is placed very shallowly in her chest. So they hooked Maggie up to the bypass right away, through the groin. They got her on the machine right away when the problem started; all her vital signs stayed stable. Surgeon is still working on getting through the scar tissue to the heart.

  1. Gary and Susan,

    Thanks for keep all of us posted. Now I am just thinking about that little girl...it is so hard to just sit around and wait. She is in good hands, though.

    Lord have mercy on us all,

    Laura
