We just spoke to Dr. Kirshbom, who completed Emma Kate's surgery in under and hour. He said they tied off the thoracic duct area and performed a pleuredesis. She did great in surgery and tolerated everything well. We can see her in about 1 hour in CICU. Thank you for all your prayers. Keep it up. Apparently this is going to be a painful recovery, since there are so many nerve endings in the area of the incision. Thank you, friends!
Yay! Go God, Go Dr. Kirshbom, and GO EMMA KATE! Thanks for the update! I'm thinking of yall today!
