Fontan

Evynn's surgery, the Fontan, has been set for October 24th.  Now we need to keep her "healthy" until then... as we head into cold and flu season...

Forward to Fontan

The SickKids cardiology team has decided to go straight to the Fontan surgery.  They reviewed her echos and heart catheter data and decided the only surgery that will solve Evynn's low saturation issue is the Fontan.  They feel that her valve is probably not leaking as bad as the reports say (reports are subjective) and that the blood pressure in her heart are as good as any pre-Fontan candidate.  A date for her surgery has not been set yet, we will find out soon.  It will be sometime in the next 2-3 months.

Sarah McLachlan....ANSWER....Live, HQ!

Still waiting...

Evynn was discussed on Monday to determine what they want to do surgically for her.  After the discussion, the team wanted to review more data regarding the tricuspid valve before making a decision... so we are still waiting to hear what the plan is...
