Emily's Challenge

As you know . . . or you would not be at this blog, Emily is having open heart surgery on 17 October, 2005. She has three holes in her heart. Two are small, and may even be closed up by now.

The third is kind of big. In order to eliminate problems later in life, she has, at age five, to have open heart surgery at Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City.

We will do all we can to keep everyone up to speed as to what is happening. This is where we will post updates. Things have already started. We have spoken with one of the two surgeons who perform these types of surgeries. He was very positive.

Emily will miss out on some things during recovery so we have tried to move some activities up on the calendar.
