Arrival in the US

Ruthe and her father (Sauveur) arrived in the US tonight safe and sound after just a little hassle in Fort Lauderdale with immigration officials. Johane was able to help them through - thank God she was with them!

Ruthe and Sauveur will be staying with Johane while in Texas. Johane's mother cooked rice, beans and Creole chicken for them tonight - hopefully they feel right at home! Ruthe's mom was happy to hear that they arrived safe and sound. It's been a long day for this family - hopefully everyone will sleep well tonight!

Tomorrow is a rest day - no doctors! Ric is taking them shopping in the afternoon.

Tuesday is test day - labs, x-rays, echo, etc

Wednesday - the docs are hoping they can do a cardiac catherization it close the ASD. If this is successful, Ruthe should be in the hospital only 1-2 days.

Thursday - open heart surgery if cath is not successful; in hospital 3-7 days

Obviously Wednesday's schedule looks best! But God is the ultimate decider.

And obviously I still can't figure out the blog stuff since the photo remains upside down!
