May 23, 2013 - Update 2 Jason's Heart Surgery

Just got a call that they got into his chest and the bicuspid valve was leaking worse than they thought and looked worse than they thought.  They are going to replace his valve with a mechanical valve called the On-X http://www.onxlti.com/heart-valves/patient-guide/available-options-for-heart-valve-replacement/  This is kind of upsetting and I sort of lost it.  This was a quick decision we made right before surgery for a "what if", never actually thinking it would come to this.  Please continue to pray for him!  They will call again when they get him on the bypass machine and I will update again when we know more.
