I'm praying for his little girl that was born with a heart condition and needs surgery. He was such a great member of this team and a great representative outside of football. Love the guy and miss him.
Mebane said he found out about his daughter’s condition in July, and prepared for her to have heart surgery.
“There’s not a lot of surgeons in the U.S. that do surgeries on babies,” Mebane said. “There’s only like four doctors in the U.S. that does this, one of the doctors is in Omaha.”
[In the article, I believe the author meant "scheduled to have surgery on Dec. 16" Not "scheduled to be born on Dec.16"]
Makenna, who was scheduled to be born Dec. 16, sustained a stomach infection two weeks ago. That’s when Mebane left the team. The infection postponed the heart surgery, and Mebane guessed that Makenna will now be in the hospital until April.
“She’s getting better,” Mebane said of Makenna. “Been getting improvement every day. As a parent, you want to see two or three more stair steps of progress, but I take one every day if that’s what it is.”
