| One visit down... |
We knocked out one doctor's visit today in our long list. It was L and El's trip to the cardiologist. Both of their records indicated heart murmurs and L's had some other heart trouble. The dentist wouldn't see them until the cardiologist had seen them, so off we went.
Both boys do have murmurs, but neither one is problematic. After ultrasounds and echocardiograms on each boy, she declared that they did not need any special treatment and would need no additional visits to her office. Praise the Lord!!! This was a big one.
Both boys were really good, but I'll never get used to the fear in their eyes. Cold stares and tears streaming down a child's face while they are completely silent is one of the worst sights a mother can bear. There is so much in there and it is so deep. Maybe one day they will be able to share, maybe not. At least they are beginning to know that I'm going to be there with them through it all. |

Phew, I know that is a load off your mind about the cardiologist. Thank goodness. Your daughter looks adorable in the soccer getup. I am glad she is doing well with it.

Kim,
Please feel free to call me to help out w/the kids while you go to your marathon of dr visits. We are going to Dallas this Friday and I am going to a dr appt w/a friend on the 11th, but would be happy if you feel like leaving the kids w/me. They can even bring school work if they need to...please call, I mean it! : )

One doctor's appt down. I'm so glad no further cardiologist visits are needed. That's one check off the list. Whew!
I hate to hear how hard this is on the boys and you, though. There's so much fear and pain there. Hopefully it will subside a bit in time.
