The surgery was a success! Dr. Hanley fixed Burke's heart! I can't believe I am actually writing that!! Burke's heart is now a normal working heart! They fixed everything that needed to be fixed and all went well! They expect his oxygen levels to be normal. They expect him to run and play like a normal child, no more huffing and puffing. They expect him to not need another surgery for 5-10 years!! Yeah, you read that right! Years, not months! I just thank our gracious Lord above for overseeing this surgery for I know He was there helping. We are just speechless. Totally speechless.
We will be able to see him in about 30 min. He will be intubated for few days but recovery could be quick and they don't anticipate anything going wrong. Now that doesn't mean nothing will go wrong, but just that it shouldn't. We are just grateful for this full repair surgery. It has been a long road coming. We are eternally grateful for this incredible blessing from Heavenly Father.
