We just got another call from the circulating nurse:
- The repair is complete. Praise God: her heart is fixed!!!
- She is off of heart bypass. Praise the Lord: her fixed heart is working!!!
Everything is going well so far, but it has taken much longer than anticipated. Before closing her, they have to insert some lines into her heart, and fix some "bleeders" (areas of bleeding that are common to surgical sites). The nurse did not sound alarmed or concerned about the bleeders.
We still have to contend with recovery, especially the clotting/hemorrhaging issues. But we are so grateful for God's goodness, faithfulness, providence, and mercy, and for the countless prayers offered up on Lacey's behalf.
We should get the next surgical update in 2 hours or less...

Dearest Gina & Scott,
All thanks be to God that everything is going so well. I know your faith is helping you through this stressful time. I will keep praying that the good news keeps coming and that Lacey has a speedy and complete recovery and that she will be home very soon. I am so very happy. Love, Mom aka Nana
