Johns Heart Operation
John was born with T.O.F (Tetralogy of Fallot - hole in his heart), and he had to have it repaired. These are photos of him before and after the surgery in Stoller Childrens Hospital in Edmonton Alberta, Canada. I reworked this gallery in 2008 to replacing all the photos with larger versions as I found the old ones too small.

Mom holding John as she feeds him a bottle. The intensivist didn't think John would even take a bottle and wanted to feed him via tube into his stumache, but Wendy argued with the Doctor until he gave in - she would at least try to bottle feed him first. And sure enough, he took a 5 oz feed the first attempt. A total of 12 oz for the day. Proving that even tho a Doctor wears a white coat, it don't make him smarter than anyone else! He later appogized to Wendy - as she was right. He was wrong.
