The Operation Has Been Scheduled

 After lots of waiting, we have a surgery date......June 6th! 

We went in and had a meeting with the doctor who will perform the surgery on March 22nd, and got all the details ironed out. We finally got the call to schedule the surgery up at Seattle Children's this week.

Dylan will undergo valve replacement surgery on June 6th, and when he comes out of it, he will be part pig. I think that is the best part about the whole thing in Dylan's mind. If you see him afterward, you'll have to ask him about his best pig jokes....he's been working on some!

We are so grateful for this incredible medical technology that has been developed. We are amazed at what has become possible in Dylan's lifetime. He should be 100% recovered within a week, and will be back to school on the Monday after surgery if all goes well. Amazing.
