Friday 30 April Kyle update

Kyle was transfered via ambulence to Phoenix childrens hospital this morning. He is scheduled for another echo-cardiogram tomorrow morning. He was started on a dieretic medicine last night which is helping to draw the excess water from his heart and lungs. He will be starting a new medicine tonight which will help relax his arteries to help his heart work more efficiently. This weekend will be spent stabilizing his weight and hopefully gaining some also. On Monday morning the pediatric cardiology surgery team meets together to discuss the patients needing surgery that week. Together they will go over Kyles echo and form a plan of what the best thing to do will be. It is most likely that he will be scheduled for surgery sometime next week. He will be in recovery in the PICU afterwards so anyone wanting to visit would be encouraged to do so this weekend. As long as you are completely healthy you are welcome between 8am and 8pm in room 407B. We will know exactly what is happening by Monday night. Thank you for all of your prayers.
