OR Update
During lunch, Dr. Gilbert told Beth (ICHF Intern) that we are still on for four surgeries today.  But it looks like the PICU needs to get some additional equipment or one of beds need to become available.  

PICU Update
The hospital team added a seventh bed into the PICU in order to care for the next couple surgeries, but we are still short the monitoring equipment, so things are a bit up in the air this afternoon.  Other than bringing in more beds and looking for equipment all the kids are doing well.  Geovanny is up and was receiving a back massage from a local nurse in order to ensure that his lungs are functioning well.  Below is a video.







Recovery Room Update
The kids are looking great.  Below is a great video of Genesis walking around.  Genesis is the girl who amazingly quickly recovered after complications with her surgery required Dr. Gilbert to come back into the OR and fix her pulmonary artery that was leaking.
