Tanner was diagnosed with Tricuspid Atresia, TGA, and interrupted aortic arch when I was 24 weeks pregnant. He was born January 4, 2008 in Texas. He was transferred to Texas Children's Hospital, he had the B-T shunt and aorta reconstruction when he was 6 days old.

Tanner  was in the hospital for 13 days before he was released. He did wonderful! We were so proud of him! His next surgery, the Glenn, is scheduled to be in April 2008.

April 2008 Update

Tanner is doing great! His Glenn Procedure surgery is June 10th, 2008 at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston.
