Balloon pump

Posted Apr 26, 2009 9:45pm

Dad is off the balloon pump and his heart is beating on its own!!!! Dad was successfully weaned off the balloon pump yesterday and he is holding his own, woohoo. He was finally able to sit up and enjoy a Diet Coke, this made him very happy. He is doing well now that the bleed is contained and he is reactivated and relisted for transplant, this is HUGE. We need a heart and we need one now.
