Taylor Lautner Stays by Sister Makena's Side After Her Second Heart Surgery

Taylor Lautner‘s sister Makena has undergone her second heart surgery.

The Twilight star updated fans about his younger sister’s procedure on his Instagram on Friday (August 11).

“2nd heart procedure is finally a MASSIVE success. Couldn’t possibly look up to this little/not so little girl any more,” Taylor captioned a photo of himself kissing Makena on the forehead.

He added, “You are much braver than I @makenalautner.. Love you so.”

Makena previously revealed on her Instagram that she has tachycardia, which she described as a condition that causes “her heart rate to go over 300+ bpm.” She has undergone one other surgery for the condition.

Makena also updated fans on her own account, writing, “2nd heart procedure was a huge success! It couldn’t have gone any better. God answered 3 years of prayers today more than any of us could have ever dreamt of.”

We’re so glad to hear Makena is doing well!
