Caleb is a two week old with dire cardio pulmonary problems and desperately in need of prayer. He's currently under the good care of the pediatric cardiologists at Arnold Palmer Hospital in Central Florida - one of the best places he could possibly be in the entire country. the initial diagnosis was Pediatric Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) a congenital (present from birth) abnormality of the heart and great vessels. although HLHS generally carries a fairly good prognosis with the appropriate surgery, apparently there were several other issues uncovered during his cardiac cath yesterday.
Caleb has had a very rough time since his visit to the cath lab yesterday. his heart rate dropped precipitously this afternoon and he went into respiratory arrest. other than to say the very best surgeons available are in the process of formulating an approach to an incredibly complicated case, I have no other specifics at the moment.
I do know that every time we hear from my son the news is worse. Please join us in prayer that GODS perfect will be done for Caleb, that HE be with the family, Caleb's care givers and the physicians attending him as well as all those who are praying so hard for a miracle.
