We Got The Call. Wahoo!!

Today at 3:45 Dr. Ross (Parkers heart surgeon)came to talk to us. He said "I think we have a heart for Parker it's looking really good And it's a good fit for him. Jim and the kids were here at the hospital too, so we got to hear the news together which was really cool. All the nurses were starring at us from the doorway smiling because they aready knew but couldn't tell us till the doctor told us. So Dr Ross and the transplant team all go on a private jet and phisically look at the heart to make sure it is in the condition they need it to be and to personally pick it up and bring it back here. He said that Parks will be going down to the OR at about midnight and then the heart will get here at 4 or 5. So they will do all the pre transplant stuff ( blood work, intubating, putting him to sleep just getting everything ready) so when the new heart gets in the room the old heart can be taken out and the new put in. Lots of you have already wrote to us and said that you'll pray for him tonight, so thank-you. We will keep you posted on the latest news through the blog.
