Now that the excitement has died down, I find myself really thinking about the miracle of this surgery. Lucy's heart is the size of her fist. Her FIST!!! Dr. Fox had to work inside of a heart the size of a small plum and not touch any of the nerves running through it or around it. Then he had to sew, SEW, patches onto a dime size hole and another hole smaller than a dime. All this inside something the size of Lucy's fist. It blows my mind that Dr. Fox walks around like a normal human being and people in the real world don't know the kind of gift/power that he has. Dr. Fox, Dr. Holt, and Dr. Shapiro are real life super heroes. Not to mention all of the awesome nurses, respiratory therapists and C&As that care for Lucy and help her to heal.
Makes me want to go out and make a difference in the world. Excuse me while I count the Box Tops for WPS! :)

Kel! I can juggle, and you never... NEVER give me credit as a superhero for that. But you're right, the guy is amazing. And that Jet Pack, wow.
