My 6 year old son's surgery has been scheduled for July 1st at INOVA Fairfax Hospital in Northern Virginia. The plan is to remove his pulmonary homograft and replace it with the Hancock II bioprosthetic. He is already on coumadin for his mechanical mitral so he will be admitted a few days prior and go on the Heparin drip. I'm not looking forward to July but know that it is necessary.
 
The facility has a good reputation so I'm sure his surgery will go well. We'll be here to help in any way while you wait and afterward.
 
Hi Theresa,

Glad to hear you've scheduled the surgery. No, it won't be easy for you, but we will all be here to help you through it. Lots of prayers and good wishes coming your way.

Melissa
