James 4th heart surgery
Donation protected
James was born with transposition of the great arteries. he had his first heart surgery at just 8 weeks old. James is having the last part of a surgery called a Fontaine to help correct his heart. This surgery will be performed at luciLu Packard children's hospital in Palo Alto California. The money we are raising is to help us pay for travel expenses and lost wages since my wife and I will be taking a month off work to be by James side while he recovers from his surgery. The Dr performing the surgery is Dr. Frank Hanley who is one of the best children's cardiologist around. He has done all three of James heart surgery's and has done a great job. James is now 6 years old and you couldn't tell by looking at him there was anything wrong with him. He is a fun intergenic kid that has a great love for the outdoors and animals. This is the first surgery that James will be old enough to know what is going to happen to him and he has been a trooper about it. He is still worried about it but doesn't show it and keeps a great attitude towards it. I will be keeping this page up today on James surgery and how he is doing. His surgery dates will be August 8th for this Cath surgery witch will be at marry bridge children's hospital and it will give the Doctors a clear look at his heart then they will perform the second part of his Fontaine on October 25th and that one will be in Palo Alto California witch is 850 miles from are home in Puyallup wa.
