We praise God that Yana is out surgery.
The doctors say that her heart looks good but that the next 24 hours are critical.
It was a long morning with a lot of tears shed and a whole lot of prayers prayed.
The doctors and staff were phenomenal. Nana T. was given the privelege of taking Yana's blood pressure and temperature during pre-op and Heather walked her right into the operating room.
Continue to pray for healing for Yana and strength for the family.
We will keep you posted throughout the next 24 hours.

Hello everyone,
ReplyDeleteIts been a very long, emotional roller coaster of a day.
We were up at 4:30 a.m. so that we could get Yana to the pre-admit clinic for a 6 a.m.workup.
We said a tearful goodbye as Heather & Yana were wheeled to the OR together; Heather then handed a drug-induced sleepy girl over to the anesthetist.
She has remained in a semi-comatose state all day. When Dan & I left this evening Yana was still intubated, which means that the tube that is down her throat does not allow her to talk. At one point when I sat with her, she opened her eyes wide, a small tear trickled down and she mouthed the word "mommy" ~ it broke my heart.
She has a fever, which we are told at this point is normal, she has a host of tubes poking into various parts of her little body that either feed her, reduce her pain, oxygenate her or provide vital information for the care team.
Heather, being 8 months pregant has been a tower of strength and endurance - the power of prayer & the unswerving love of a mother.
We thank God for the miracles that took place today and we thank you our dear friends and family around the world for your kindness, your words of encouragement and most of all your prayers. Please don't stop!
Love,
Ida & Dan for Heather & Mike and Yana
Thank you for the update! Our hearts are with you, Hannah Thanked God at bedtime that Yana's surgery is over and that she can come home soon to play. We are thinking of you, tell Yana that we are all cheering for her to get well soon! Paul, Kelly, Brayden, & Hannah
ReplyDeletePraise God from whom all blessings flow. Both Wil and I were awake at 4:30 this morning believing it was time to pray for Yana and her family. We are so glad the surgery went well and we continue to lift all of you up. The Lord has heard and will always hear the prayers of His people. Glory to God in the highest.
ReplyDeleteGeorge and Wil and family
