Surgery day for Lyla

We made it through today! Thanks to so many prayers for Lyla the surgery went well. The surgeon said the two holes in her heart were very large and he filled those in and also had to fill in her pda that was supposed to close up at birth and hadn't and then separated her valves into two and everything went as planned! She hopefully can have the breathing tube removed tomorrow and slowly more tubes as we go. She's hooked up to a million wires and tubes but so far she's doing excellent! It was a very long emotional day, we're relieved it's over and she can be on the mend! I am so grateful for our Heavenly Father watching over and taking care of her, it truly is a miracle that along with all her doctors, surgeons and modern medicine her heart can reapired and she can be made well again. It has been very humbling and overwhelming the love and support we have felt from so many loved ones and family members willing to help us and show their love and concern. We are so blessed and grateful!
