Waiting for the doctor to come out & talk to us. Andrew tolerated the procedure very well. Will provide details after we talk to doc.

Still in cath lab. Dr. N finally got access through both groins & left neck. No liver, yea! Right now they are taking pictures & measurements throughout Andrew's heart. Pretty cool if you think about it. I figure Dr. N is our cardiac navy seals of sorts. Thankful for him & the cool technology that allows for this stealth op. Anyways, not sure how much longer, depends on what they find. Thank you for continued prayers!

They just called me from the cath lab to give me a hourly update. The cath Dr is getting started; working on gaining access - an issue with Dizzy since he's had so many lines. We're praying they can get in a femoral vein so they don't have to go through the liver. Andrew's vitals have been great, very stable so we're thankful for that.

Andrew is back with anesthesiology getting ready for his cardiac cath. They got him to sleep around 10am. Little feisty thing fought it with all he had, but we were able to stay with him until he was out so at least he wasn't alone with strangers. There are several things the Dr is going to look at & lots of possibilities for addressing any issues they discover once he gets in there, so it's hard to tell exactly how long it will take, between 2-4 hours. We'll update as they update us. Thank you so much for all the prayers!
