"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.

Surgery In Progress

Hello Everybody

Andrea went into surgery about an hour ago to remove a part of her colon which was bleeding from an injury she likely got sometime before her pump was put in.  The injury is likely from a lack of blood flow.  I will try to report again tonight.

thanks, Maynard
