Twas the night before surgery


Tomorrow is miracle day. Dr. Brown will be building a tricuspid valve from cow (bovine) tissue. While the Doctor has performed many surgeries on heart valves, he said it was only the second time he has done this for Epstein's anomaly. One of Jensen's problems is that his heart is very enlarged. They plan on reducing the size of his heart during this operation also. With the pre-op and post-op time, this is going to take most of the day. Jeff and Anna will wait it out together, just the two of them and ask that you pray for Jensen. Actually, Dr. Brown asked that he is prayed for too. Amen.
