Tuesday 10:00 am Update: Mya is back from the heart cath test. Good news is that she did just fine during the procedure & they found the reason for her arrests. Her left coronary artery is really narrow, causing the lack of flow to hear heart. The bad news is that this is pretty uncommon, so they don't have a lot of options/standard procedures on how to amend the issue. They're planning to take her case to a meeting of the minds on Friday where they'll discuss the best situation for her. At this point she's doing so well they could possibly take the breathing tube out today, but I'm not sure if they'll want to leave it in, knowing that another surgery/procedure may be necessary. This little squirt isn't making things easy on anyone!

Every step you make is making Mya's life a little healthier. Glad they found the cause for the arrests - now to see what they can do about it. Medicine is amazing these days so we will hope for the best. I know you must be exhausted but definitely feeling better having this much information and knowledge about her condition is a plus. Looking forward to seeing Mya up and around soon.

Take care,

Patti and Bob
