One Down

Yesterday Brodie had Cath surgery, they inserted caths in to his femoral artery in his left thigh. They also inserted one on this neck to get a better look at his lung where they will be attaching the blue blood veins to today. Brodie is in surgery, for hopefully the last time. This is his 6th heart surgery in 18 months, four open heart and two Caths However it doesn't seem to get any easier. Here are some pics of Brodie after yesterday's surgery, and the night before.

This is where the inserted the Cath in his neck
In the recovery room, happy to finally be allowed to drink something

At 6:00pm we got to bring back to our room and eat dinner
What a trooper

  1. God bless your heart, Brodie. You are such a tough little boy. Your mother is even stronger. Jamie I am so proud of you. I could never be as strong as you are. God loves your little family so much. Praise God for such wonderful Doctors and modern medicine.
    Love & Prayers, Grandma Suzy
