4:45 am Cleveland time, (Yes, that's Eastern Standard Time) Abe and I are rolling around in bed, trying to figure out whether to wake up, doze off, or just lay there and worry. We go for waking up.
5:45 am Cleveland time, we gather Bayla, and head out in the 11 degree morning for the dark, solitary drive to the Cleveland Clinic
6:15 am we arrive at the hospital, and every one seems a little cheery given what we're about to go through. Check out the baby hospital gown--Bayla doesn't seem to mind it at all.
8:30 am Time for the big hand off. Bayla has blissfull fallen asleep, and we put her in the very capable arms of Julie Niezgoda, pediatric anesthesiologist. Our friend RR, a med student is going to observe the surgery, and rounded up Dr. Mavroudis' text book. It's both a wonder that anyone would want to observe open heart surgery, and a comfort that she's there.
After a tour of the facilities (thank you Samantha), we're sitting in the Ronald McDonald room. It's probably as close as we'll ever get to McDonalds...thanks, Bayla.
