Looks like my 4 month old boy is going to have open heart surgery this week to fix a congenital heart defect. We've known about the defect and pending surgery since his birth but weren't aware it would be this soon until today. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers, thanks.

A lot of this surgery is pretty routine these days. Still, you and your family will be in my thoughts. Hope the little guy gets well soon.

Just wanted to update everyone that after 18 days in the hospital (15 in ICU), Mini-Mega is finally home and seems to be doing well! There were some serious scares as he decided to do things his own way. He was hooked up to a pace maker for a while to help get his heart rhythm working properly, which could have been permanent, but luckily his heart figured it out (heart is very swollen and injured...and needs to learn how to work after it's "fixed"). Also his blood pressure plummeted a few times...once where like 5 cardiologists rushed in trying to figure out what was happening, surgeon was called in with other surgeons already in gowns in the hallway, crash cart was rolled in with the paddles at the ready, extra blood was brought in for transfusion and bypass machine was at the ready to circulate blood out and back in his body (which has a high chance of brain damage). Also had a CT Scan early on because he was showing a few signs which could have been related to neurological damage, which turned out to be withdraw symptoms from drugs. If anyone is curious this is what he was born with. Just happens with no apparent reason to about 1 in 100,000 people. www.heartbabyhome.com/2011/06/tof-dorv/

My favorite line: "Mini-Mega is finally home and seems to be doing well!" The rest is some seriously scary shit, and I'm sorry that you, your wife, and Mini-Mega had to go through all of that.
