Gonzalez's Heart

As of 11:30 am Jaden went back up to the picu. The surgeon pulled him out of the operating room. The surgeon came out to talk to us and told us that she was not going to do the surgery today.

After about 4 and a half hours they still could not find the correct vein even after bringing in an interventional radiologist. They thought they had got the line in the vein and found that it was actually the artery which is not what they wanted. By this point his legs were totally blue and he was very cold so the surgeon said she would not proceed with the state he is in.

So tomorrow at 7am they are going to bring him to another OR where they have more specialized x-ray equiptment to hopefully get the line in the right location. The only other option if they can not get the line in the right spot is to put it in the neck which could cause a lot of problems with blood backing up so they don't want to do this. After they get the correct vein or take the alternative action (which we will pray it won't result in this), they will move him into the the cardialogist OR room to proceed with the heart surgery.

Thank you for your continued love. Jaden I know, is feeling the power of all your prayers!!!
