I am convinced that God must have something very special planned for this little boy. It all started in Feb of 2008...he just happened to be born the week we were in Honduras...if he had been any other week he would not have been able to have surgery and he would not have survived. We were able to get him to the states for surgery and home once he recovered. Then this week such a horrible accident...a TV falling on his head, fracturing his skull and causing a head bleed. However, after surgery and lots of prayer Angel is recovering and it looks like is going to be just fine! We serve an awesome God! Thank you all for your prayers. Please continue to pray for our team!trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-25174967156352125042010-10-02T19:04:00.000-07:002010-10-02T19:06:40.498-07:00Update on AngelAngel has a skull fracture and a small head bleed.

Our doctors went to check on him but our cath lab team, anesthesiologist and perfusionst had already flown home so we didn't know what we would be able to do. Once they echoed him we realized he needed a surgery we couldn't do in Honduras but we could do a procedure to buy him some time if we could find a hospital in the states to accept him. Lori got on the phone and worked her magic and our wonderful doctors did an amazing job in a very tough situation. Angel then flew to New York, had his surgery and even though he was very sick after surgery and had to stay longer than expected he went back to Honduras and was doing very well. Last year when we were in Honduras his mother brought him back to see us and he looked amazing and was doing so well. Tonight I got some horrible news...Angel pulled a TV on his head. He is in the ER at Cemesa Hospital (where our team is) and they have called neurosurgery but it doesn't look good. Please pray for Angel. Pray for his mom and the rest of his family and please pray for our team. I'll keep you updated. Love and prayers!<br /><br /><br /></div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeS3uUlhEveGscfySY6cTZcJP_O2WIMhY9HDJy9ZBLDgjjg7iNIXcq0sBf636F1sfm6u7WdkWnNEoqE8Bi9Zgx_ljaTyFBs2KATpiLLBtxH15eDmWf6hZaSjZ_XRuBasjNxxhD8kc083k/s1600/074.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523620950264059794" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeS3uUlhEveGscfySY6cTZcJP_O2WIMhY9HDJy9ZBLDgjjg7iNIXcq0sBf636F1sfm6u7WdkWnNEoqE8Bi9Zgx_ljaTyFBs2KATpiLLBtxH15eDmWf6hZaSjZ_XRuBasjNxxhD8kc083k/s320/074.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh867MwgFD6jOZmv1gD3aVCFBw-R0h2_lmJGQPSK5S146qLsUStqRF0tj-VU8KnDMGtKtcMgq1Utcem7fiaINNnps4Qi-csLgIwOrsjqqTTXSxI77hM2jYvoQHW_226i0xW_pKDlyyMhfs/s1600/075.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523620954240855634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh867MwgFD6jOZmv1gD3aVCFBw-R0h2_lmJGQPSK5S146qLsUStqRF0tj-VU8KnDMGtKtcMgq1Utcem7fiaINNnps4Qi-csLgIwOrsjqqTTXSxI77hM2jYvoQHW_226i0xW_pKDlyyMhfs/s320/075.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSVZ8rsplXWkLB2N30aaone3RkOdwKH_Zqx9dK2GUW5VSBnccNJF0XN4no-jajn7tp51408JPXNPXbD7-v-vR_4_W6T-C9gkLcKV5DiwYFaejWeucbxMaOLYmk0WtLPHTsUFQXjOwbsnI/s1600/082.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523620961632623170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSVZ8rsplXWkLB2N30aaone3RkOdwKH_Zqx9dK2GUW5VSBnccNJF0XN4no-jajn7tp51408JPXNPXbD7-v-vR_4_W6T-C9gkLcKV5DiwYFaejWeucbxMaOLYmk0WtLPHTsUFQXjOwbsnI/s320/082.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqkLc-vxlG0UhPwMshBgGFQFlEg27Sn4bcTy1CnC05EQcRZLmvTQy4YkISXlnV6qvdtmYl3ZgGdtRw_avgySQ0NzH6TzMGBaABztaYYocjfrQIJFNabYqJn-EeLZxtUb1589lZVghbYzQ/s1600/087.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523620960471641538" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqkLc-vxlG0UhPwMshBgGFQFlEg27Sn4bcTy1CnC05EQcRZLmvTQy4YkISXlnV6qvdtmYl3ZgGdtRw_avgySQ0NzH6TzMGBaABztaYYocjfrQIJFNabYqJn-EeLZxtUb1589lZVghbYzQ/s320/087.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyyQHSMvcafHEVLQ_RA-xC9tVBHvUU_MBgpnKpwvVdyyA5aDDK1Gcjfot_zbfaWDixn7jGJGqHpozIubLPr1KpKTguM8_kF94RRv95LHbS1Bt6n-_alj4DIq_lM6TOcv_O6l4rlQP_C_E/s1600/034.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 198px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523620964846932738" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyyQHSMvcafHEVLQ_RA-xC9tVBHvUU_MBgpnKpwvVdyyA5aDDK1Gcjfot_zbfaWDixn7jGJGqHpozIubLPr1KpKTguM8_kF94RRv95LHbS1Bt6n-_alj4DIq_lM6TOcv_O6l4rlQP_C_E/s320/034.JPG" /></a></div></div></div>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-20757512159631813162010-10-02T13:18:00.000-07:002010-10-02T13:39:43.189-07:00Honduras Needs Our Prayers!Our prayers are needed in Honduras!!!<br /><ul><li>The team is working very long hours and they are very tired...please pray for rest and clarity of mind and energy until they can get rest!</li><li>Some of the team members are sick...please pray for them to get well very quickly</li><li>Because of the tropical storms and flooding there are power outages...the most important <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">equipment</span> is run on the backup generator but that doesn't include things like AC...please pray for no more power outages</li><li>One of the patients had a lot of bleeding...he is doing better now last I heard however the team had to purchase extra blood that was not budgeted for...they are short about $2000....please pray for funding</li><li>One patient who was scheduled for surgery had other problems they were unaware of so they will not be able to operate on him...please pray for for this precious boy and his family!</li></ul><p>Thank you all for your prayers.

Let's keep them in our prayers! When I hear any details I'll let you know.<br /><br />If you notice things are different this year. Last year we ran two <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">ORs</span> and did about 4 surgeries a day...this year they are running one OR and doing 2 surgeries a day. This all has to do with limited funds, limited supplies and limited number of volunteers. When times are tough people cut charitable donations first. I've never been good at asking for money but there are so many children in Honduras who since need surgery. If you are reading this and you would like to make a contribution you can do so at <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">fobf</span>.org<br /><br />Hopefully I'll have great news about these first two kids very soon.<br /><br />Remember to keep the team in your prayers...they work very long, hard days!trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-46592556201281031982010-09-28T21:58:00.000-07:002010-09-28T22:12:44.560-07:00Little Hearts 2010Today the Cardiac Surgery team arrived in San Pedro Sula, Honduras and spent the day unpacking and setting up. I still can't believe I'm not with them...it just doesn't seem right! :( From what I hear they arrived safely...although I did get a text from Amanda saying that Dan missed his flight....let's just hope he found another flight cause I don't seem them being able to do anything without him! It seems there has to be some sort of airport issue every year. In 2007 we had to unpack and repack our supplies because Continental didn't seem to like the way we had them packed. In 2008 Audrey's passport expired soon after our trip so they made her drive to Houston to get a new passport and then get a flight to Honduras. Last year those of us who were traveling a few days early to set up ended up leaving with everyone else since our flight was canceled. <br /><br />Surgeries and caths start first thing in the morning. Please keep everyone in your prayers. If I hear how things are going or if I am told of any prayer request I'll post them here.<br /><br />Sending lots of love and prayers to Honduras!<br />Trenatrenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-19387197368067752572009-03-02T11:36:00.000-08:002009-03-02T12:08:17.254-08:00Judith Anabel CruzIt is with great sorrow that I tell you that Judith passed away this morning.

First I'll let you know that Edwin was readmitted to the hospital...he had a large <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">chylous</span> effusion and needed a chest tube but is doing much better now.<br /><br />On Wed before Lori left the doctors had stated Judith on dialysis. On Thursday they were able to wean her vent some, she was having more purposeful movements and making some improvements. However, on Friday she took a turn for the worse. Her <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">coags</span> are all messed up and she required lots of blood products (platelets and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">FFP</span>). She is now on higher vent settings and 100% oxygen and her pressures on the vent were really high. Her liver enzymes are incredibly elevated and her <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">creatinine</span> is high again. They also said she was less responsive and probably septic. For those of you who have informed me my blogs have too much medical terminology...the ventilator is doing all of the work for her, she is in renal failure, her liver isn't functioning well, she probably has an infection and we aren't sure of her <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">neurological</span> status.<br /><br />If I get more info I'll post it. Thanks for your prayers.trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-35040840496558564372009-02-26T14:45:00.000-08:002009-02-26T14:47:11.974-08:00Judith updateNot much has changed with Judith. They are still unable to get her off of the ventilator. She still has the PD catheter in but they haven't had to start dialysis yet. Thankfully she continues to have more purposeful movements. Please keep this sweet baby in your prayers.trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-35587500388466148392009-02-24T09:11:00.000-08:002009-02-24T14:47:15.765-08:00So hard to say goodbyeSunday was our last day at the hospital. We sent Liana, Andrea and Edwin to the floor to be in the care of the Honduran nurses along with Dennis. The four of them are doing well and should only need another day or two in the hospital before heading to the Barnabas House. Sunday was a very busy day for Judith. Her kidneys are still not functioning well so we placed a peritoneal dialysis catheter. Lori arranged for a Honduran pediatric surgeon to come and place the catheter. He was very nice and we are so grateful that he took the time to help us out. After Judith woke up from the sedation she received during the procedure we removed the breathing tube. We bring all the IV pumps and monitors with us so once the breathing tube was out I had to change out all of her meds so they could run on the Honduran pumps and put her on their monitor. I was concerned about how her blood pressure would tolerate changing her meds over but things went remarkably well. After that came trying to explain to the Honduran nurses how to take care of her. They don't take care of congenital heart defects and they hardly take care of children. I know that the are some of the best nurses in Honduras and they are wonderful people, we love them, but they truely aren't trained to take care of Judith and the issues she has. I broke down as I kissed Judith goodbye...I never knew leaving would be so hard. Her grandmother and I held each other tight as we said goodbye. We speak two different languages but it was like we knew exactly what the other was saying.<br /><br />Yesterday we flew home. Such a long day on a plane for hours. I was so excited about getting home but so sad about leaving. Once I got home I got an update on Judith. She had some respiratory distress overnight and her oxygen sats were low so Monday morning they reintubated her and she is back on the ventilator. There was also some issues about where she was going to stay (Cemesa or the public hospital) and who is going to pay for her care.<br /><br />Lori stayed in Honduras for a couple extra days to work out some details of Judith's care and I just got another update. She is still on the ventilator...they are hoping to get her off in the next day or two. Her renal function is slightly improved so they haven't had to start dialysis yet. She is still on a little bit of dopamine and hopefully they will be able to wean it off soon. With each day she seems to be moving more and making more purposeful movements. They were finally able to get her on TPN (IV nutrition) since she has not been able to eat and hopefully having better nutrition will give her more strength to recover faster.<br /><br />It breaks my heart that we had to leave her. I wish so much that I could have stayed there until she was able to go home. I will continue to post updates on here as I get them. Thanks for all of your prayers they were very much felt and appreciated.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXXPLegd7wG055xvewYZ7R19fnOBFnlnjgPyifh1FEsgJgGoImQmKxTx9Ysn9aHRjKnejwTGwbnn3jnm5A6LVe4WHNjxr9VhNE_O6u18qV4_17lvOJvtXsmAExl-3uFvIHbN972cOFHNA/s1600-h/058.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306434910001334050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXXPLegd7wG055xvewYZ7R19fnOBFnlnjgPyifh1FEsgJgGoImQmKxTx9Ysn9aHRjKnejwTGwbnn3jnm5A6LVe4WHNjxr9VhNE_O6u18qV4_17lvOJvtXsmAExl-3uFvIHbN972cOFHNA/s320/058.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWpcMY079YTdynMmtK6t6v5xH0PRz17PiVUti2hXLXDXE9M5r4LB6cR9o0QvpLFAcWkW3Z82O8dK1x9e5qLRUMk3czOrYgbQ_d_dMW_EG6QiMr9uCgfLjUsAochjkE_txr_EAfMvn0Jz4/s1600-h/054.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306434493768963074" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWpcMY079YTdynMmtK6t6v5xH0PRz17PiVUti2hXLXDXE9M5r4LB6cR9o0QvpLFAcWkW3Z82O8dK1x9e5qLRUMk3czOrYgbQ_d_dMW_EG6QiMr9uCgfLjUsAochjkE_txr_EAfMvn0Jz4/s320/054.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguwQy9aW4CK-cDPUPhPL_kWmXIsDpSbFfY-Bp3egSjzMZeULhYF4d81TB09yAqFWfIX2WX0afmD1g_H9pO6f6hAeppbk_nwS4TokkV2bdtGw74rivTWSBDQbo5COpZR8LC_MIUogHWJh0/s1600-h/024.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306433926957123794" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguwQy9aW4CK-cDPUPhPL_kWmXIsDpSbFfY-Bp3egSjzMZeULhYF4d81TB09yAqFWfIX2WX0afmD1g_H9pO6f6hAeppbk_nwS4TokkV2bdtGw74rivTWSBDQbo5COpZR8LC_MIUogHWJh0/s320/024.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAc_yah2qzsjT4ZzwxFaOI_f0Vd0grV-p0b-2kn_6Q-mAlIx0rFd49dmeFwqsrigmt7yaR1elru6FArgc0XlY6pTvoQ0jLHs7vvzUMnT0BIbiXZ4P6xjQArAQwnF7BZgwGiXpeSMiuyTc/s1600-h/022.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306433502029020162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAc_yah2qzsjT4ZzwxFaOI_f0Vd0grV-p0b-2kn_6Q-mAlIx0rFd49dmeFwqsrigmt7yaR1elru6FArgc0XlY6pTvoQ0jLHs7vvzUMnT0BIbiXZ4P6xjQArAQwnF7BZgwGiXpeSMiuyTc/s320/022.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCisr_UzlgxNNnyzaDThpP1OjOBdQVkSPNCIaoFbB9zwoNHjIeyjYOI3tIJOkCXbzht3xcHEeLX6IgkQJNY4RHWOCwJwDP-HdHKzQA-FFWQPDWZWlyDXMZAYHudBiUQVhumNzDDYSW4ZM/s1600-h/065.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306432047776643362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCisr_UzlgxNNnyzaDThpP1OjOBdQVkSPNCIaoFbB9zwoNHjIeyjYOI3tIJOkCXbzht3xcHEeLX6IgkQJNY4RHWOCwJwDP-HdHKzQA-FFWQPDWZWlyDXMZAYHudBiUQVhumNzDDYSW4ZM/s320/065.JPG" border="0" /></a>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-20633729547258299752009-02-21T21:12:00.001-08:002009-02-21T21:37:57.289-08:00Final two surgeries completed!Two more surgeries were completed today. Liana a 7 month old PDA and Andrea a 6 year old coarctation. Bothe girls are doing well and look great. Edwin is still in the ICU. He looks like he is beginning to feel better but is still not well enough to go to the floor. Judith needed another chetst tube this morning due to a lot of blood building up in her chest. This is one of the reasons we left her breathing tube in today. Another reason is that she may need a peritoneal dialysis catheter put in tomorrow if her kidneys don't start working properly. PD catheters are fairly common at home but not really something we do when we come down to Honduras. We are hoping her renal failure will improve over night so keep her in your prayers. It's still not obvious how much she was effected by the stroke hopefully it will be minimal. She does seem to be moving and responding more today so that is a good sign. We leave on Monday morning and it's going to be so hard to leave her. <br /><br />We started packing today and quite a few team members have already left and another group leave tomorrow. Please keep everyone in your prayers as they travel.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuD9aid3S7Gn-ZFug0HnFUlComRGnyTsS-RIvax7iReJE56mXuryvoHvv1bgZ-B1b0fcgRMrJa6zsp6411x9DSLFXo0hnMr2Qp0FnWWUJciFkUARrcUjYiCZBAJ9GNQZL899EIdUmzlSg/s1600-h/045.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305488996833878818" style="DISPLAY: block;

This morning when I got to the ICU she had started moving and opening her eyes. However, he blood pressure was low so we had to start more meds to get it up. She is still very sick but we were able to decrease those meds a little bit before I left today. We did a CT of her head and found that she did have a stroke. Right now we do not know what kind of impact this will have on her, we are hoping it will be very minimal, but we will have to wait and see. She is very sick and has a long road ahead of her but we are hoping to take her off the ventilator tomorrow. Her family is amazing. Her mother died when she was just 1 so her father and grandmother are raising her. They have such a strong faith that is amazing and so rare. Every time I talk to them the remind me that it's all in God's hands and they are trusting him. They are such sweet people and so grateful for everything we have done.<br /><br />Three more surgeries completed today! Three sweet boys had their hearts repaired today...7 year old Delvin, 16 year old Manuel and 8 year old Junior. Other than a little vomitting they are all doing very well and will probably go to the floor tomorrow.<br /><br />Edwin the last surgery from yesterday is still in the ICU. He needed a little more time to recover before heading to the floor. He seemed to feel so bad today so hopefully he can get some rest tonight and have a better day tomorrow.<br /><br />We had a wonderful surprise today...Angel, the sweet baby we took care of at the end of the week last year came to see us. Shortly after we left last year she went to New York and had his heart repaired. He looks amazing and of course so very cute!<br /><br />Caths are done and we have two final surgeries scheduled for tomorrow. Please continue to pray for us as we are all exhausted. Also pray for a speedy recovery for these kiddos...it's so much easier leaving when we know they are all doing well.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgONCx2_XNEZ0CvXrt3FVzCSgbDlDPYYFV4ablcHeCPib0uyzlSHHWRFOcaVOIU_Qu1sP2tWGjXEC9cTJuR_ejeaVQwr_wF11jBfgONbgRD43qF8Dm5t0hizXjWBUv7-OI_cGzjznTKmQs/s1600-h/046.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305102703780718850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgONCx2_XNEZ0CvXrt3FVzCSgbDlDPYYFV4ablcHeCPib0uyzlSHHWRFOcaVOIU_Qu1sP2tWGjXEC9cTJuR_ejeaVQwr_wF11jBfgONbgRD43qF8Dm5t0hizXjWBUv7-OI_cGzjznTKmQs/s320/046.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7B10QWTFEs4qeaJTZB456JTl6AnJ58XlKIM47vEHLbUXj7A8nhdhJsBBLgk4z0pI1akMKiddcFLgtIDK7Yf8_aPy6i1kaa5oj05rqkslQJNr5NC_xzVvNcdxYZfsJW74TMDZ8eI9kWT0/s1600-h/014.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305102420734022818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7B10QWTFEs4qeaJTZB456JTl6AnJ58XlKIM47vEHLbUXj7A8nhdhJsBBLgk4z0pI1akMKiddcFLgtIDK7Yf8_aPy6i1kaa5oj05rqkslQJNr5NC_xzVvNcdxYZfsJW74TMDZ8eI9kWT0/s320/014.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitRfMke6NVe9tDtb5j7PvWMmKDSVww_EaFB2QV7bUzo-C4E64wEyegcvoqe1wXoR6L3tqXRV0pfc8rhJKLpgErkU60KJHtTrfKK5tsTTIhRtSXfYS980nWa2_yK_kQ4SGSrJNETTwVSOY/s1600-h/ash+and+edwin.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305102035974141266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 316px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitRfMke6NVe9tDtb5j7PvWMmKDSVww_EaFB2QV7bUzo-C4E64wEyegcvoqe1wXoR6L3tqXRV0pfc8rhJKLpgErkU60KJHtTrfKK5tsTTIhRtSXfYS980nWa2_yK_kQ4SGSrJNETTwVSOY/s320/ash+and+edwin.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB-VR1ySbeiMT5GLbn9uf8RA7kK9dXF7z2ugCEncqkhL7TBYdvYUNXRtYTh_IBP6yk8rqMBlGSx_k0ePOZnkC8mVN9dPitzzosCkyMQ-TFxeYnBUgJ6-v9Bfo02wCkUSGKFaQM-Tm4kOM/s1600-h/008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305101634723655154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB-VR1ySbeiMT5GLbn9uf8RA7kK9dXF7z2ugCEncqkhL7TBYdvYUNXRtYTh_IBP6yk8rqMBlGSx_k0ePOZnkC8mVN9dPitzzosCkyMQ-TFxeYnBUgJ6-v9Bfo02wCkUSGKFaQM-Tm4kOM/s320/008.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeGsbKdmTjZSU5kxw5VtDcXxB2nRGMxa2GMLYdU_gimUWcycQPeXU3SZDIzfjD8468Ece30bQ_Y3R65yR0yIIsft4nthewYSTILPPbLJWoL7gPpHC8ZQziOGGeIhHf3VFhY4Q2qdkbWh0/s1600-h/017.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305101360982969394" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeGsbKdmTjZSU5kxw5VtDcXxB2nRGMxa2GMLYdU_gimUWcycQPeXU3SZDIzfjD8468Ece30bQ_Y3R65yR0yIIsft4nthewYSTILPPbLJWoL7gPpHC8ZQziOGGeIhHf3VFhY4Q2qdkbWh0/s320/017.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdsU-WoAhLC8sl-4JDmqB_9V__a6SyPSNn4Cf1Mbv2-EofLl6M5htVaw6HAnJK3GUHymmhqMBpQZG-D1F_yFKFqzBpJueazirwFsBFvHSnRz23Hf7TPGh_bu0Ok5EZaUWElevyRlD-fa0/s1600-h/010.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305100876292965410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdsU-WoAhLC8sl-4JDmqB_9V__a6SyPSNn4Cf1Mbv2-EofLl6M5htVaw6HAnJK3GUHymmhqMBpQZG-D1F_yFKFqzBpJueazirwFsBFvHSnRz23Hf7TPGh_bu0Ok5EZaUWElevyRlD-fa0/s320/010.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbFOavzojMDzHShy_VOjuaIjbasGKoJs6Ai1tlHW-E2ncOn3ICEOj99m-eCrssifuMOHWAKz0zIEaCPxUUFfnSLqMMtUSrVXFDPnoE3_maFxOYJ5SokLol34R7Ip3CVgglM2pw9T0hYtM/s1600-h/034.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305100613611406370" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbFOavzojMDzHShy_VOjuaIjbasGKoJs6Ai1tlHW-E2ncOn3ICEOj99m-eCrssifuMOHWAKz0zIEaCPxUUFfnSLqMMtUSrVXFDPnoE3_maFxOYJ5SokLol34R7Ip3CVgglM2pw9T0hYtM/s320/034.JPG" border="0" /></a>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-39148662485642107982009-02-19T22:14:00.000-08:002009-02-20T04:49:20.010-08:00WE NEED YOUR PRAYERS!!!We need your prayers more than ever. Judith, sweet 2 year old little girl, went into the OR early this morning for a TET repair. After the surgery was complete and she was still in the OR she arrested and had to go back on bypass to allow the heart time to rest so she didn't make it into the ICU until about 7pm this evening. She is now in the ICU on the ventilator and her vital signs are stable but she hasn't moved or woken up at all. Things are not looking good and we need lots of prayers...we need a miracle. Please pray for this precious baby and her family.<br /><br />All our surgeries from yesterday are now on the floor and doing well. Many of our kids are out of the hospital and at the Barnabas House recovering before they go home. A 4 year old little boy named Raul was supposed to have an ASD closure today but he is sick so we had to cancel the surgery. Fortunately he should be healthy enough to wait until next year for surgery. Suamy was the first case out today, he is an 11 year old ASD. Edwin, a 1 year old, had a TET repair today and seems to be doing well. Dennis is still in the ICU but is doing well and should be able to go to the floor tomorrow.<br /><br />While I was waiting for the surgery kids to get to the ICU I had some free time to go play with all the kiddos who were waiting for caths and ECHOs. The were so cute and had a blast with stickers. They thought stickers were the greatest things ever and had them from head to toe! They were some of the sweetest, cutest kids and I just wanted to bring them home with me!!!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQz4caaCiFDNCG6kwMK_e91xghTRdbPGAJFFLfGafS7fONvIEPNSHxRZAOzW73bPQaJQ2F0Rg7j9XdyB8wvZsP8KEebA8LiO4-pCRPtYd7M15lYdbuAn2Mv5Ckq4p_F2qp6EwgTNi1r1Y/s1600-h/004.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304765643778012098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQz4caaCiFDNCG6kwMK_e91xghTRdbPGAJFFLfGafS7fONvIEPNSHxRZAOzW73bPQaJQ2F0Rg7j9XdyB8wvZsP8KEebA8LiO4-pCRPtYd7M15lYdbuAn2Mv5Ckq4p_F2qp6EwgTNi1r1Y/s320/004.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqM5N15VKJs-TdERrapS37_vDRPH7lXiXjiedA-ugDiVhSOlsJEZagGkEodAbAMOl7E7P7O-E3Fy6utBBx2eV_GB2Vtx0sXVr3tbgY7Qe7_vFqL2lDNcCat7NzNv9kcFLYghTdyCOsC5E/s1600-h/072.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304765407845687746" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqM5N15VKJs-TdERrapS37_vDRPH7lXiXjiedA-ugDiVhSOlsJEZagGkEodAbAMOl7E7P7O-E3Fy6utBBx2eV_GB2Vtx0sXVr3tbgY7Qe7_vFqL2lDNcCat7NzNv9kcFLYghTdyCOsC5E/s320/072.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyrxb4bu-Rs1Ja3joEkcOr5aGvHduEF0xK1z7AB8Ai50hImMeiH2sEfOgasGSGlqjN5pNGaVZtPykGNmqwfqBCCvnwhDD9ru77p-3bt6CNsQ_9Le-6Lcmrpck6NCrzOOmEvohzWfHkXCI/s1600-h/002.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304764926984170786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyrxb4bu-Rs1Ja3joEkcOr5aGvHduEF0xK1z7AB8Ai50hImMeiH2sEfOgasGSGlqjN5pNGaVZtPykGNmqwfqBCCvnwhDD9ru77p-3bt6CNsQ_9Le-6Lcmrpck6NCrzOOmEvohzWfHkXCI/s320/002.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi25S7P-dyEO_r0rLtiMJndb_ESv2mRLYLIf2rSVcg72PAa2dDKvQxe7ZBJoU2ekbx_KBlIpwW1A_lkHr50pVZKirEC_CDbN5LDs80jmJe0cKpu9vuNLGwPwxGeoD5_ubTESQIxajyg26I/s1600-h/083.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304764634028899778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi25S7P-dyEO_r0rLtiMJndb_ESv2mRLYLIf2rSVcg72PAa2dDKvQxe7ZBJoU2ekbx_KBlIpwW1A_lkHr50pVZKirEC_CDbN5LDs80jmJe0cKpu9vuNLGwPwxGeoD5_ubTESQIxajyg26I/s320/083.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT9-A4pP5U1BGklWbRJtO_vjWKtzwZIFo8rEtLs6rxkUhY6WrZ80Vg-0jX4CJa7RK7Cz1jA2z9x_bYKYcpgXzQO0Yl9Ll5yRNh68HG5QkEjL1BaG01VbAChX5uBj3JtuNbUbK38nd5CXA/s1600-h/008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304764048606390882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT9-A4pP5U1BGklWbRJtO_vjWKtzwZIFo8rEtLs6rxkUhY6WrZ80Vg-0jX4CJa7RK7Cz1jA2z9x_bYKYcpgXzQO0Yl9Ll5yRNh68HG5QkEjL1BaG01VbAChX5uBj3JtuNbUbK38nd5CXA/s320/008.JPG" border="0" /></a>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-37891950042638992572009-02-18T21:16:00.000-08:002009-02-18T21:58:22.867-08:005 More Surgeries!!!Well, Dennis had a very rough night last night but as we were leaving for the evening they were extubating him!!! Please pray he has a better night tonight. The other children that were operated on yesterday all went to the floor today and are doing very well.<br /><br />Today five more children had heart surgery and all are well! First out of the OR was Ramon, a 15 year old who had an ASD repair. Edurado was out next, he is our sweet 13 month old who had a TET repair. A few hours later 5 year old Mable, our second ASD of the day, arrived and shortly after Thania, a 2 1/2 year old VSD arrived. We added a fifth surgery today which made things really busy. Claressy is a 7 year old with a PDA. They were unable to close her PDA in the cath lab so we operated on her today and she is doing well.<br /><br />Lots more caths were done today as well. I still haven't figured out the total number completed this week but I know it's alot...when I do find out I'll let you know.<br /><br />Thanks for all of your prayers...this wouldn't be possible without them!!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP2y691TlUCS6scjz1AFjZKQEX49nEMei7Vl3Hdjm088Vn83kwfPRiQWw6bIajH3Ac1I-4aeQ4SItzljGozIZxUAAyTymujmYMjuVUMLXgS6m4FURo_pLzvaLb5ylvu0ht76_xcWh44VA/s1600-h/018.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304382531052317250" style="DISPLAY: block;

The day started by pulling art lines and central lines on Astrid and Madeline and sending them to the floor. Later in the afternoon Arnold made his way to the floor and then after lots of negotiating Steven made it to the floor. Dr. Stromberg considered leaving Steven in the ICU since he had be the sickest of the four and we had extra beds but Steven was mad at him for letting everyone else go and bargained with him so that he could go as well.<br /><br />Four more surgeries were done today. Anny (ASD), Nayeli (PAPVR), Dennis (ASD, VSD, PAH) and Jennifer (TOF). Anny and Nayeli came out first and did very well. Dennis and Jennifer both arrived within a few minutes of each other and kept us very busy. Jennifer is settled and doing well but Dennis is still very very sick. All of our patients have come back extubated except for Dennis. He is still on the ventilator, sedated, paralyzed and having some arrhythmias. Dennis seems to be doing a little better than we he first came back from surgery but he is still very sick. Please keep all of these children in your prayers.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaKbpwiGBNqk2rS3bM85Y5WEL-NsOm4cBb73zbqXzXepNjVq1lk1P9ovi9nddjL46XxvkNWmfwcDIuNUkgQyMxbCK_zo74jFbI7a5dh0QLh-gF2leAwhphyphenhyphenYocN1FWv_4MdMYKQsr1t5Y/s1600-h/055.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304021437347296482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaKbpwiGBNqk2rS3bM85Y5WEL-NsOm4cBb73zbqXzXepNjVq1lk1P9ovi9nddjL46XxvkNWmfwcDIuNUkgQyMxbCK_zo74jFbI7a5dh0QLh-gF2leAwhphyphenhyphenYocN1FWv_4MdMYKQsr1t5Y/s320/055.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfctIZp9OL_V0b6JVTQfTe7oGJG54qhnfSKxrO6p-f5cU6hFhyphenhyphentL5leSphclip-GO08iWRWxsKf-hs6B4mLGzvg5dhqbU_EzgrhgiifYdvLXQg-3VCwU6vJ4RYVYlkCQfMH-b-aVX0ISI/s1600-h/020.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304021433435597474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfctIZp9OL_V0b6JVTQfTe7oGJG54qhnfSKxrO6p-f5cU6hFhyphenhyphentL5leSphclip-GO08iWRWxsKf-hs6B4mLGzvg5dhqbU_EzgrhgiifYdvLXQg-3VCwU6vJ4RYVYlkCQfMH-b-aVX0ISI/s320/020.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAQgExx43BpS4t39qqx3cql-ukcpSb4jY_Cc-0E41aI1-iu71MtZqHZdVP1LKja5ftCo5kzvjIkczZD0siCT6AcwGOwSYXL6VxCjeRJsNJll7TVPXqdqYWr8hxYnAC51tx3M7XhyphenhyphenPB_y0/s1600-h/057.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304020757458191218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAQgExx43BpS4t39qqx3cql-ukcpSb4jY_Cc-0E41aI1-iu71MtZqHZdVP1LKja5ftCo5kzvjIkczZD0siCT6AcwGOwSYXL6VxCjeRJsNJll7TVPXqdqYWr8hxYnAC51tx3M7XhyphenhyphenPB_y0/s320/057.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAeaP6cZt0bQogfaOF9vEtDLrbgpUFTQCkHtx9fFybN9CkjgMt6dqfFTMmRIcpoFdx-jWnZk8XF21ZeYbN-N9lM6hSv5OZygdVsMG_zCGYoXn4k2wvo3H2F6hTcZU9jbDEV6yYKVc_8eo/s1600-h/062.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304020752760736290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAeaP6cZt0bQogfaOF9vEtDLrbgpUFTQCkHtx9fFybN9CkjgMt6dqfFTMmRIcpoFdx-jWnZk8XF21ZeYbN-N9lM6hSv5OZygdVsMG_zCGYoXn4k2wvo3H2F6hTcZU9jbDEV6yYKVc_8eo/s320/062.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqd0tIoZpq95EzEYOuCEp5ghQInfYJTJ6E4_QalotHmDca6Rrg4cCz4XetJo90g37sBYM0aXK31UsMjOnl0FMujXoi9vi5MF0dJvQDl4-kUc0PmyAl_8fVfjqSbojyt9qNeWw7toR-ETM/s1600-h/065.JPG"></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB05Gso4pdqONglpLIxzUP97yaP_9YocpzIo848KiFfFBeBaIuUbTAMc3yGlq_upQgHa4iwu77fz6LWfLIiZfopanYezg4jDa4SRVwH4jIgWcEbpwNeI8mh7NzdhJTtlyBHd0IpnkrtAs/s1600-h/142.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304019340713770722" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB05Gso4pdqONglpLIxzUP97yaP_9YocpzIo848KiFfFBeBaIuUbTAMc3yGlq_upQgHa4iwu77fz6LWfLIiZfopanYezg4jDa4SRVwH4jIgWcEbpwNeI8mh7NzdhJTtlyBHd0IpnkrtAs/s320/142.JPG" border="0" /></a> </div>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-30715177883517148392009-02-16T21:03:00.000-08:002009-02-16T22:08:48.541-08:00First 4 surgeries completed!!!Thanks for all your prayers...our bypass machine was repaired and we were able to run two ORs today. The first four surgeries are all in the ICU and doing well!!! Astrid was our first surgery of the year. She is 5 years old and had an ASD closure. She was awake, watching cartoons and playing with stickers and her stuffed turtle when we left for the night. Steven was our second surgery. He is 8 years old and had a TET repair. He is very very smart...he called Dr. Stromberg to his bedside and asked him if it was normal to have this much bleeding after surgery and then proceeded to negotiate with Dan on what time we would let him have something to drink. Next out of the OR was another 5 year old with an ASD repair named Madeline. She was awake and stable when we left but not happy with us because we wouldn't let her eat. Shortly after Madeline our last surgery of the day arrived. Arnold is an 22 month old with TOF and he is super cute!!! It was a great first day of surgery and tomorrow will be busy, busy, busy!!! I don't know the exact number but along with the four surgeries was have also completed many caths. Since our cath doctor was able to make it 3 other interventional cardiologist have taken his place. Tomorrow the second one leaves as the third one arrives. Please keep them in your prayers as they travel and pray that the transition is smooth and no flights get cancelled!<br /><br />Now for a bit of sad news. Today a sweet 26 day old baby boy named Damion was brought to us by his mother and grandmother. They had heard the Cardiac Surgery Team was in town and they brought this precious little boy to us to see if there was anything we could do for him. Unfortunately he has a very complex heart defect that we are unable to repair here in Honduras.

There we were able see some of the kids we took care of the past two years and a couple that will be having surgery this year. These kids are precious and we wanted to bring some of them back with us. On the way back we stopped and enjoyed one the beautiful sites in this country...the waterfalls were amazing. We finished organizing the ICU and got everything ready to start surgeries in the morning. Our plan was to run two ORs but one of the bypass machines is currently nonfunctional so we are trying to find away to get it repaired. If we are not able to fix the bypass machine it will mean cancelling surgeries.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipc6zl6Dd2RsZiUd9C2dI6iJ-N7wGN0ZZ4GmWRSIwj3N8GnyOid28hvnr19UkskmKjgErJk_1FeCz-cowHWh9Bn6bB6VuaoR-pVN7wgJojc2RzNDjhKmcOTna0A96h84unjiwLWrFiGXw/s1600-h/138.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303278066505574498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipc6zl6Dd2RsZiUd9C2dI6iJ-N7wGN0ZZ4GmWRSIwj3N8GnyOid28hvnr19UkskmKjgErJk_1FeCz-cowHWh9Bn6bB6VuaoR-pVN7wgJojc2RzNDjhKmcOTna0A96h84unjiwLWrFiGXw/s320/138.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAAI_uCxKuTHKpur42IQxa4ny6Lvy-xaFhH7Ulr1bcsH6rqhsPRW9z3x2TvNKEJEDBhfca6uic8wS-8mX2vcj7_lLiVUQiyKnnsY-4nQ4gpau1OHhicTZpTK8rNve0GqKINQHYq5JSWPo/s1600-h/119.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303278060594686930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAAI_uCxKuTHKpur42IQxa4ny6Lvy-xaFhH7Ulr1bcsH6rqhsPRW9z3x2TvNKEJEDBhfca6uic8wS-8mX2vcj7_lLiVUQiyKnnsY-4nQ4gpau1OHhicTZpTK8rNve0GqKINQHYq5JSWPo/s320/119.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb1r2DR3sekBXvolj5paVx42ClDAfLhxDiJJ3KH0YP5iHBEhNcD0V6UD2iNFoOjosDIzS9juEGrXb46BPVlELfmM2exBLiiDGz1VHfEuGzXvEpHgZxFJBhPxtWGlBWIcr-VvY9mAt_JzI/s1600-h/069.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303278062595246370" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb1r2DR3sekBXvolj5paVx42ClDAfLhxDiJJ3KH0YP5iHBEhNcD0V6UD2iNFoOjosDIzS9juEGrXb46BPVlELfmM2exBLiiDGz1VHfEuGzXvEpHgZxFJBhPxtWGlBWIcr-VvY9mAt_JzI/s320/069.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixe6z1QlDoCEojvqXVNZ6ydOBvRPuNy2D7eGS5d4EegFn8BjTTb5ehOHlyD5ctpyzlA-cDNzQGRnOi_fz2r6pA_npJqg-tpZwhtmMaPlVT8_vIFRhV2VsXlVHMHFP1BDPwXgbfiYagFXs/s1600-h/097.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303278058067004466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixe6z1QlDoCEojvqXVNZ6ydOBvRPuNy2D7eGS5d4EegFn8BjTTb5ehOHlyD5ctpyzlA-cDNzQGRnOi_fz2r6pA_npJqg-tpZwhtmMaPlVT8_vIFRhV2VsXlVHMHFP1BDPwXgbfiYagFXs/s320/097.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy7ZcYDE4k2wRDxTxVcNrhGw5lDaImey5L0qMXsuwJtjUwF4BNklTnklDnnd5FF7MjP_zNx3VCLeD3QXkb3VnKlKdcn3eu1yWsbYVsUw92auWa29H6cWyukBFTt7sDLLC4omFGZInPXp8/s1600-h/103.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303278048273527202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy7ZcYDE4k2wRDxTxVcNrhGw5lDaImey5L0qMXsuwJtjUwF4BNklTnklDnnd5FF7MjP_zNx3VCLeD3QXkb3VnKlKdcn3eu1yWsbYVsUw92auWa29H6cWyukBFTt7sDLLC4omFGZInPXp8/s320/103.JPG" border="0" /></a>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-40266784742747533622009-02-14T20:54:00.000-08:002009-02-14T20:57:33.298-08:00We finally made it!!!We finally made it to Honduras and got most of the supplies unpacked and organized.

There are still so many children in this country that need our help and we are excited to have the opportunity to help them however fitting more surgeries into one week means we need lots of extra prayers!!! <br /><br />Prayer request:<br /><ul><li>Safe traveling to and from Honduras</li><li>Enough supplies to take great care of these precious children</li><li>Strength and energy to keep us going during the long hard days</li><li>The health of our team members </li><li>Successful surgeries and fast healing of these children</li><li>Please pray for the families of these children, I can't imagine how tough this is for them</li></ul><p> </p>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262870046531431035.post-1492062477169634272008-04-19T11:41:00.000-07:002008-04-19T11:47:40.988-07:00pics!!!i just got these pictures of angel, he looks fabulous!!! thanks for all your prayers!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM4638eLik26tJxeIUcrFcq0797sLSecNUu5bi4WLPB51hA9gRQ61bUGxRAMd-oPaFOrGCrnxc1BNfJlbW1Zkdjt2HX57k8vqMBwB2NhlTIVPS0tlNOJPhjrcj0uOU9JHtFd9WJMthXxw/s1600-h/photo%5B2%5D.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191029345356970338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM4638eLik26tJxeIUcrFcq0797sLSecNUu5bi4WLPB51hA9gRQ61bUGxRAMd-oPaFOrGCrnxc1BNfJlbW1Zkdjt2HX57k8vqMBwB2NhlTIVPS0tlNOJPhjrcj0uOU9JHtFd9WJMthXxw/s320/photo%5B2%5D.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGcEbxYyovvJt613MM9MEvm7wq38RaFxAImGLVCkiodlCiCCIzsndlQY_xsB3BefO16lx0DEotcbAq__BlbdH_20qGgcTGJ4p7ceJS-qzuili08YHVzPcUx6LDBj_1cWCOxd9IuttrJQs/s1600-h/photo%5B1%5D+(2).jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191029349651937650" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGcEbxYyovvJt613MM9MEvm7wq38RaFxAImGLVCkiodlCiCCIzsndlQY_xsB3BefO16lx0DEotcbAq__BlbdH_20qGgcTGJ4p7ceJS-qzuili08YHVzPcUx6LDBj_1cWCOxd9IuttrJQs/s320/photo%5B1%5D+(2).jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF-Yf6hedITZYRpM5NNbfSKjxxMVsqeBEzJ3KeHQrk0-H0Wr51BkeTwoahxTseOH1tqdIZtSXRZkpBHg7Qv081dI7Z0kWAQ-vVvkq1Fak5Z1LOxL3WISV8Ou8VLW_o418__Dh9G87jxqo/s1600-h/photo%5B1%5D.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191029353946904962" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF-Yf6hedITZYRpM5NNbfSKjxxMVsqeBEzJ3KeHQrk0-H0Wr51BkeTwoahxTseOH1tqdIZtSXRZkpBHg7Qv081dI7Z0kWAQ-vVvkq1Fak5Z1LOxL3WISV8Ou8VLW_o418__Dh9G87jxqo/s320/photo%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" /></a>trenasuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02845968800042881168noreply@blogger.com0
