Bummer
BP and I took the LP to his heart doctor yesterday and spent four freaking hours waiting around Riley’s Children’s Hospital. His last appointment was in July and his doctor recommended surgery for LP’s vsd (small hole in the heart.) He said that this surgery is better done now when there’s little damage, rather than waiting until LP’s in his thirties or forties and he’d have to be on blood thinners the rest of his life. The surgery is booked for the end of May, which we’re not looking forward to at all.

Poor LP...he doesn't get out of school for his surgery, but out of half of his summer vacation! : (
(((LP))) I'm sure he really loves hugs!
Is this basically fairly non invasive micro type surgery?
I hope all goes well.
Thanks all.
Al, if having your rib cage broken and pried open to repair a valve then yeah it's non invasion micro type surgery
(((LP)))
Emm your family is in my thoughts and prayers
holy fuck, emma
that sucks
Whoa, that does suck--in many ways.
Good luck to him and y'all
I'm really sorry to hear that, Emma, but it sounds like he has a good physician and undoubtedly it will be better to get it over with sooner rather than later. I'll be thinking of you all.
LP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
