Surgery Details:
Date: Thursday, October 16, 2008
Time: 5:30 a.m.
Place: Seattle Children's Hospital (http://heart.seattlechildrens.org/)
Surgeon: Dr. Gordon Cohen (http://heart.seattlechildrens.org/pfs/Detail.aspx?id=91207)
Procedure: Atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) repair
(http://heart.seattlechildrens.org/conditions_treated/atrioventricular_septal_defect.asp)
On Wednesday Oliver will have his pre-op work done, and we will finally meet Dr. Cohen.
Many people have asked what we need. Except for a full-time housekeeper, we are all set up. For the next two weeks, I will live at the hospital with Oliver, Eric will sleep at our house, and Alex(i) and Isaac will stay at Grandma/pa's house on Whidbey Island.
Our biggest prayer is for Oliver's health. Isaac is already sporting the drippy, green nose. If Oliver catches a cold before Thursday, they will postpone the surgery.

Thank you for posting this! We will all be praying on Thursday.

Your family is on our hearts and definitely in our prayers this week as you head up to Children's for pre-op and the AVSD repair! God is good and we have found over and over again that during the tough and emotional hospital days, He is bigger and more present than ever. We may be a little biased, but there is none better than Children's, Dr. Cohen, the Cardiac ICU and the floor staff. Let us know if you need anything before or during your stay.
Love, Jesse (I work with Eric), Roger & our hero Luke (Single Ventricle, 2 open-heart surgeries at Children's)
I'm praying for you guys and for Oliver. We love you!
Amy (for the Campbell clan)
We will be praying as well. Thank you for being willing to keep us all posted. Let your strength come from our faithful Heavenly Father alone. Love & Prayers from your family in Alaska.
The Eller family from Mars Hill Church West Seattle will be praying for you during this new season - we will be passing along info at church as well! God Bless you all!
Love, Matt, Amy, Elijah, Noah and Micah Eller
