Not the best results...

Evynn has recovered from the heart catheterization, but has been admitted to SickKids again.  The catheterization showed her leaky valve has gone from moderate to severe.  This is causing the pressures in her lungs to be too high.  The doctors and surgeon have decided to discuss her case this coming Monday when the surgeons and other specialist consult about up coming surgeries.  They are expecting she will now have surgery this coming week instead of the end of November.  The leaky valve has to be repaired to bring the pressure down, before she can have the Glen stage surgery.  They will debate whether they think they can do this all at once or whether it needs to be two separate surgeries.  The hope is that her surgeon will be able to repair the valve and proceed with the Glen all at once.  For now, Evynn is stable and still smiling...
