fontan update

Abigail has been doing great with all her updates this morning. After anesthesia and placing lines they took their time going through the sternum. scar tissue accumulates from previous surgeries, they take their time going through that area, careful not knick the heart in the process. Last update about 1130: she is on heart-lung machine, doing well. Dr Hienle is finishing the actual Fontan procedure. When that is complete they will start closing her up. Once she is is done they spend 1-2 hours getting her settled in ICU before we will be able to see her. The prayers are working, keep them coming!
