This is Summer's sister Starr:
The surgery went as good as possible. We are very excited about the outcome.
Many prayers have been answered! Taylor had a very successful surgery. She got to choose bubble gum anesthesia. They used a cow valve that will carry Taylor hopefully into her thirties. This is such great news for us! The surgeon, Dr. Kaza, stopped by and commented on how remarkable Taylor is doing post surgery. She is already speaking, coherent, and aware of what's going on around her. They've estimated her time in the ICU will be four to five days and then she'll be recovering another four to five days in another area of the hospital. We are all so very proud of Taylor! She has been so brave and strong throughout this process. She loves the orange slushies and ice chips in the hospital. Way to go Taylor!!! The key now is that she gets enough rest for a successful recovery. We appreciate every one's thoughts and prayers so much! We will keep you posted on when we can have visitors...at this time Tay needs as much rest as possible. Thanks for all the love and support!
Favorite Taylor moments:
-Bryson turned to Taylor and let her know that she's so lucky that her doctor went to Harvard and attended the best medical school possible. Taylor's response "I thought Yale was the best."
-After Taylor's surgery she when she found out they used the cow valved she jokingly moooooooooooed!
-Myles favorite part is her mustache (the oxygen breathing tubes)

ReplyDeleteRemembering Taylor's energy level, keeping her down will be the most difficult part. I am so glad everything went so well and really expected nothing less for such a faithful young lady and family. We all love you and your family is in our prayers and thoughts.
