Ms. K rocked the OR and an update on her cousin!

K before her surgery in waiting room. :)

Hello all. So ms K rocked the OR yesterday. She was such a good girl. She is in a bit of pain but we are staying on top of it. There were a few bumpy spots but that is due to the lovely institution that we were at. (LOTS of sarcasm inserted there). There was an agreement that K would be in observation for 24hrs after her procedure. But the charge nurse in step down told them she thought it was not necc but that is the only reason why my pedi agreed for this one doc to do it bc that is what he agreed to. Then the anth doc. Lord please bless her with more understanding for patients. I tried telling her k's symptoms and what not on the heart related side and she wanted to hear not a word. She just told my husband that "she LOOKS very healthy". If you recall from my last blog post or so.. I was going to punch someone that said that. BUT since we were stuck with her I figured I should not hit her. lol. I called the pedi and let her deal with it and she was FURIOUS that they sent us home. So ms K has been on her pulse ox for 24hrs and has only had one destat. We have rescue o2 at home so that is not an issue. :) Today she is back to her gummy grinning self. btw she has 2 TEETH NOW! My earliest teether.

Alexus had to go to the hossy last night also. Lots of wheezing and stuff and 5hrs of waiting finally got seen and they do two things and out the door we went. They have diagnosed her as having childrens asthma. We kind of already knew it but they can not give the diag until they are 2yros. Just sucks bc yet again I feel like I did something wrong. But whatever. Anywho.

Then K's cousin has ALS Leukemia. 90% cure rate for his age. He is on his second dose of chemo. And is holding up pretty good right now. Parents aren't but that is to be expected.
