Good morning Marsh had some bleeding overnight and woke to severe arm pain but he’s doing ok.

Fingers crossed the red slippers I am wearing take us where we want to go most.

Sending hugs, love, and so many thanks for the prayers. Please keep them coming ❤️

Thank you for the good thoughts and prayers please keep them coming

Update 1: Marsh is doing ok and lines are in place.

Time to measure.

Update 2: Balloon dilations are complete. They took care of some collaterals.

They will be wrapping up soon… as his nurse just said they are “Rounding 3rd heading home.”

Cath is complete. We are waiting for consult with Dr. Esch (cath doctor.)

We are waiting to see Marsh now. He is still intubated.

The pulmonary veins on the right side of the heart were fine. The left pulmonary veins were problematic with severe stenosis in the left upper and moderate narrowing in the left lower.

The Glenn pressures are still extremely high (unit of measurement escapes my memory but it was 15).

Dr. Esch is hopeful that with the collaterals closed the BNP will settle down.

If we can keep him healthy, the plan is to return for another cath in seven to nine months.

We are waiting to speak with Dr Friedman next.

And hoping beyond hope to see Marsh soon.

Please keep sending good thoughts and prayers ❤️

Echo, labs, x-ray (picked up possible gallstones,) labs complete, and first case tomorrow.

Marsh has a small plueral effusion in his left lung.

His labs are “ok” and we are waiting on the BNP.

Dr. Friedman consulted with us and he said “We will know more after cath” (direct quote.)

Thank you so much for the good thoughts and prayers. Please keep them going. ❤️

We are off for adventures. I will share pics:)
