"We Love Andrea" was created to update Andrea's friends as she went through a difficult journey. After her second heart transplant when her pulse began to speed up she was given a pacemaker, then a Heart Mate II or LVAD. She was in the Stollery Children's Hospital, then the Mazankowski heart unit in Edmonton, Alberta for 7 months. However, she peacefully died on May 11, 2011 when the rest of her heart and other organs could handle the strain no longer. If you come to this blog, pray for her family and friends, remember to tell your friends you love them, then sign your organ donor card.

Update from Maynards

Good evening everyone,
We are having a good day. This morning in rounds the doctors decided Andrea could go out on a day pass plus overnight at Ronald McDonald House so here we are! We need to go back in the morning to get weighed etc. and if all is fine we can do it again. Hopefully by the end of the week we'll be able to be discharged and stay here at the house until Andrea's cath procedure on Nov. 19. I went and bought groceries and made supper here and I don't think Andrea ever ate as much in the last 6 weeks as she did today! She is very happy to be here. Her creatine was 212 today and they also checked the pacemaker before we left so hopefully it will continue to do its job. So if you want to come visit call ahead and maybe we can see you in our new home away from home! It's really nice here!Love, Maynard, Faye & Andrea
