Surgery Has Begun

Hey all,
Just an update...Surgery did not start at 9:30 as planned. They finally took her back for surgery at 12:00pm (Noon). The doctor wanted to make sure that everything was checked and double checked. When they came to get Averi...Kelli and Brad put her on the bed to bring her back for surgery and Averi was not happy...She was crying and did not want to leave mom and dad behind. Yesterday they were hoping that surgery would only last about 2 hours, but the doctor informed them today that it might be closer to 4 hours. I just got off the phone with Kelli and the doctor just came out and said that Averi is doing great and that there was a serious blockage and they are going to go in and remove the blockage. Please say a prayer for our Angel and her family. This is a very hard time for them right now as many of us could only imagine. Please also say a prayer for the doctors that are performing the surgery today that their minds stay clear and their hands stay strong. I will update again once I hear something from Kelli.
