Mom’s surgery is complete and she is back on the 10th floor Surgical ICU recovering. Dr. Bansal told us that what he found was not good. He said puss had surrounded the LVAD and various parts of the machine in her chest. It was more widespread than anticipated. They took cultures and sent them to Infectious Disease to see exactly what we are dealing with. Dr. Bansal said it will be a miracle if it’s not an infection. At this time, he is not set on what our next steps are. The next 48-hours will tell us how serious the infection is and help him determine his next steps. In the meantime, mom will continue to recover and he will be consulting with his LVAD colleagues across the country.

Please pray that the lab work comes back negative for any type of infection. Please pray for wisdom for our team of physicians as they determine next steps. Finally, pray for strength for mom and our entire family. We’ve been facing this giant for almost eight months. God hasn’t brought us this far to let us down now. We continue to believe for a miracle and ask you to believe with us. We love you all so much!
