The lion needs a heart, sounds like a story I once heard. That one had a happy ending, as will yours. Will be praying for all of oyou.

I haven't slept more than 3-4 hours in the last 3 days, but we are home, and Adam did great!
Our cardiologist is confident that Adam won't need a repeat surgery.
The surgery lasted about 3 hours, the hardest part for me (aside from him not eating in over 12 hours) was watching them put him to sleep and then just leaving him there.
Thank you for everyone praying or thinking about him.
You need to take it easy and rest. I am glad everything worked out with the little guy.
Now, take time to enjoy him, Mike, and Christmas.
God Bless,
Unionblue

If things go as usual, it will be when Adam wants to borrow your car to take out "that" girl. That's a crisis!
So glad to hear that everything worked out as expected. There is nothing so fearsome as that which doesn't occur.

Thank you Ami for the update. Glad Adam pulled through just fine and like Ole said, wait till he asks for the car keys because he's going out with "that" girl.
May the Good Lord smile on you and your family. We will keep you all in our prayers. Glad to know it all went well.
God Bless you and yours.
