valkryorWe just found out that Shannon needs to go in for another round of surgery. Her pulmonary arteries have too much excess tissue and it's starting to kink and fold in on itself a little like an intestine, which is not ideal. The hope is that this will solve the low oxygen saturation levels and aid in her recovery.
We have no time limit for the surgery itself, since this is a tweaking of sorts and not a standard procedure. It could take three hours or ten. We've already been told by Dr Calderone, the surgeon, to not watch the clock.
Poopie.
EDIT: The surgery is set for tomorrow (Tuesday). Shannon's first case, so if it all goes according to plan, she should be in the OR at 8 am. Sorry about the confusion on the time.

My thoughts will be with you all.
