We checked into the hospital this morning at 8 a.m. Ellie got some stickers and some medicine to help her off to sleep. They just wheeled her back to the cath lab to get started.
It takes about an hour to get things set up – IVs in, etc. It then takes around another hour to do the cath when they’ll run the catheters through arteries in her groin and up into her heart. They’ll take a look around and measure the pressures in both her left ventricle and left atrium. After that, they’ll decide whether or not they want to do anything interventional.
We should have an update in around an hour. We’ll post again then.
Hey guys, thinking about you and sending you a touch.
Watching and waiting, praying and sending you love, peace, calm, healing, and reassurance.
