The surgery itself is complete. Landon is off the heart-lung machine (was on it about 2 1/2 hours) and they will be closing him up shortly. Everything went well as far as we know and they have done an echocardiagram to check his heart function and the new Fontan circulation which looks good. We expect to speak with the surgeon in an hour or so and will get a better idea of how everything went from his perspective. Then we will hopefully see Landon between 2:30 and 3 after they take him back and get him settled in the CICU (Cardiac Intensive Care Unit). He will of course be out still and will look very different than the last time we saw him so we will have to prepare for that.
No hiccups or surprises that we know of up to this point which is a huge praise. Thank you for your prayers!
So happy to hear this. Thanks for keeping us informed.
