Update on Dylan

Dylan is doing great! We moved up to the Heart Center today--much more quiet than the PICU and bigger and more comfortable. He's been more alert today...we will be able to hold him later on. He'll have something taken out each day (tubes, IVs) and that will eventually lead to us going home! His incision looks great...his surgeon is known for making the smallest incision possible on these brave babies. The pics below show oxygen at 100% and his feet before and then after surgery (blue then pink!) This little guy is just amazing.

Thanks again to everyone for their thoughts and prayers!

I have been praying for you and your little man. I'm a friend of Jennifer Mobley. I saw her post on her blog to pray for Dylan and wanted you to know your family is definitely on my mind!
