A date has been set ...Friday- June 21

Last week went fairly well, many of our prayers were answered...

1. We felt comfortable with the surgeon...Dr. Ohye  ( I have included his bio here so that you can all get a peak into him)...http://med.umich.edu/cardiac-surgery/patient/team/ohye.shtml

2. Josie travelled quite well...

3. We have decided to move forward with open heart surgery, and as of this morning, we have decided the date of Friday, June 21, 2013...

We appreciate your prayers, as we move forward in our month of waiting...

Love,

Sarah

Headed to Ann Arbor...

I will try to write more later, but as for write now, I am just writing for prayers for a clear direction for our family. When we met with U of M, for a second opinion they do not believe that a heart cath is the way to go, they believe open heart surgery is the best for Josie. To get a better feel for the team at U of M, we are headed to Ann Arbor today to meet with the surgeon.

I ask ( rather I beg of you) to please pray for the following as we start today...

1. May it be black and white to all of us what path we should take...(ie: what procedure and when?)
2. May it be very clear to us when we should be doing this procedure.
3. Safe Travels
4. That Josie is a great traveler today, she did well on our trip to Chicago a couple of weeks ago, but I pray that she can be that great traveler again.
5. And please just pray for peace of our hearts....

Thank you advanced from all of us, including our little feisty Josie!
