Darla Garrett--9/14 Update for Wyatt Stevens Wyatt's heart is at 20% capacity. If it's not at least 50% by Wednesday, he will have open heart surgery.  His heart was at 12% and has improved to 20% and he has responded somewhat to "Sponge Bob" music.  9/15 evening: Wyatt had complications from the ecmo machine that saved his life earlier, he had a stroke early this morning, had 2 blood clots on his brain. He had his skull opened up to relieve the pressure and stop the bleeding. He survived the surgery but they ...have no idea how much damage was done or what his functions will be if he makes it. He was removed from the ecmo (heart) machine and his heart is 30% efficient. It's now a waiting game, they've done everything they can as he is no longer a candidate for the Berlin Heart due to the strokes and neuro-damage. Prayers are needed for Wyatt Stevens and his family.
