Daily Update

Well, Atticus is having to go back into the OR right now. His oxygen saturation numbers have been dipping really low, so they think there might be a clot in the shunt that takes the blood to the lungs. PLEASE pray that this is all and that they can clean the clot out and it'll fix the problem. We'll keep everyone updated as we find out anything else.

Newest update is that Atticus is off of the heart-lung bypass machine and that they didn't find much of anything. Atticus is very stable and they hope to be back in the PCICU in about an hour. We're hoping this means that it was just a blood clot and that he managed to pass it, so hopefully he'll remain stable.

Latest update on Atticus. Dr Hsia said they couldn't find anything in the shunt, but that Atticus was stable and his numbers looked good. It could've been a clot that just passed before they got to it, but his shunt was clear and getting good blood flow to the lungs. Just keep up the prayers that he remains stable and no more scares.
