nancur373 Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 Well the Sick Kids Hospital called yesterday to say that our youngest son Jacob's surgery has been bumped up to tomorrow. It was supposed to be Friday but I guess with some cancelations he moved up. For those of you who don't know he has double outlet right ventricle. This is a condition where the two major arteries come out of the right ventricle instead of one out the right and one out the left. He also has a rather large hole in his heart. The surgeon is hoping to be able to redirect the artery inside the heart rather than outside thus eliminating artificial conduits and reducing the chances of future surgeries. He will be six months old on Sunday. Please pray for him. Thank you my Friends, Curt, Yolanda, Alex and Jacob McDonald
Bly Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 Will definitely include your family and the staff in our prayers. All the best and a speedy recovery for little Jacob
John Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 Sick Kids is the place for him to be Curt. I can't think of anywhere else that I would trust more. Our thoughts and prayers will be with Jacob and of course you and your family.

crappieperchhunter Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 Our neighbors grandson had a similar surgery last May. He's like a bunny on a caffiene high this summer compared to last. Get rested up now cause when Jacob recovers you are gonna be busy busy busy. Best wishes for the wee man tomorrow.
