In Surgery

Chase went in to anesthesia about 8:45 AM.  Surgery and recovery should take 3-4 hours if all goes ideally.  He will have to be put in deep hypothermia while his heart and circulation are stopped.  This can only take place for about thirty minutes before his body temperature has to be brought back up.  If they do not complete the parts of the surgical procedure that require hypothermia they will then have to relower his body temperature to finish.  This will obviously take considerably longer.  Will update as soon as we have more information.

Mikaela and Millers,

Please know that I am mindful of you all in my prayers. I will put you all on the prayer roll of the Portland Temple this afternoon when I go. That little guy radiates sweetness. My hopes for the best possible outcome.

You can do this!

Mommacita might have a soft spot because he kind of looks like a Garlock baby.
