The cardiac nurse case manager gave us an update on Mariah at 9:40am. Everything is going great. The leads have been placed in the atrium and ventricles of her heart. When the nurse left the OR/cath lab the EP was starting on creating the pocket for the ICD device. It was still undecided whether it would be placed under the muscle or over it. She's tolerating surgery very well and we she might be out of surgery around 11am.
The wi-fi signal is excellent in her room whereas down the hall in the family lounge it is very poor. Once Mariah is feeling a bit better, it will be nice for her to have a good connection so she can check her email, update facebook, etc, if she is up to it.
We are SO grateful to have such an amazing extended family. When we left the family lounge, there were at least 15 people from our family waiting, including my parents, of course. Steve's parents will be here this morning. We are so very thankful for ALL of our family and their support. We are blessed.
More later....
