Then I read posts on some of the heterotaxy groups I am a part of...
Then we have another cardiology appointment..
Then we have another echocardiogram.
It looms. Like the blade in a guillioutine.. And with bated breath, we wait for it to drop.
It's been a while since Jack's last cardiology appointment. We had the entire summer to feel normal. There were so many days I didn't even think about his CHD. He has an Ecco and an appointment with his cardiologist this Friday.. And just like that, the monster in that far back corner begins to rear it's ugly, terrifying head.. I can hear the throaty growls begin to echo in the darkness. I sleep a little less, my heart begins to weigh a little more. Anxiety begins to take hold.
Hopefully Friday goes smoothly with good news, a healthy Jack and a very distant follow up appointment... And the monster can settle back down in that deep, dark corner... Until next time.
