Successful Surgery!

Gabe's surgery is over and everything went well. He is sleeping soundly and looking cute as ever!
The doctor who did the surgery said that a significant improvement in blood flow would be at a 4, and Gabe's change in flow was 22! He REALLY needed that PDA closed! We are so excited to have this obstacle over with and can't wait to see his improvement over the next few weeks!
Thank you for your prayers! Please keep praying for his recovery to be quick and as pain-free as possible. And his lungs recover from all the stress and he is able to be weened off the ventilator at a good pace.

  8. Thank God for the great day and awesome hands of Gabe's surgeon!!! He is such a tough little guy, and we will continue to pray for his recovery. Can't wait to see him again, I am sure he is cuter than ever!! Hopefully his lungs will get stoger soon and he can be breathing ALL on his own. Our Lord is amazing, he has already allowed so much progress in Gabe and there will be so much more to come. Look forward to cleaning tomorrow!!
