March 4th 2005

The titanium clamp that was on Shelby's pulmonary artery.

(Excerpt from my journal.) You made it through the surgery.  You are a fighter!  I am so very grateful for the miracle that you are! When I first was allowed to see you, you had 14 machines hooked up to you.  I have so much respect for the nurses that work here.  They are so amazing.  Right now you have extreme sensitivity to any light, touch or sound.  They are having a very hard time regulating your blood pressure and any little thing makes you bottom out.  The Dr came and talked to us after surgery and told us how sorry he was and that there is no excuse for the mistake.  We have a long road to go before we are in the clear.
