Update # 4: Surgery complete
We just met with the surgeon and everything went well. Daniel's vessels were re-routed and his heart is pumping better than expected. Unfortunately, he is loosing more blood than they would like so he is currently in limbo status. They will see how he is in a few hours and if the bleeding doesn't' slow down, they will have to do something about it. If it does slow, he will remain for 48 to72 hours before they close his chest back up. They do this because there's a lot of swelling and so little room. It is a little hard to imagine, but our little guy has a "seal" over his chest (like medical saran wrap).
