heart cath postponed!

heath had a pretty big coughing attack that woke him up for 2 hours in the night! ahhhhhhhhhhhhh....so, we just called Duke (well, I attempted to call duke) and said that we didn't feel comfortable having him put under today. Since it is not an emergency, I think this is best for all.
SO, we are postponing the cath. will keep you updated on the next date.

blessings on your day--hope you get to enjoy the beauty and warmth of the sunshine AND a little march madness!!!

heart cath tomorrow!

I have been admonished by several folks for not telling you that Heath is having his annual heart catharization early tomorrow morning. Well, hopefully he will have it--he is coming off a pretty bad cough & ear infection, so they are going to wait until they see him tomorrow morning before making the final decision about doing the cath. Because this requires general anesthsia, they have to be careful about his airways being clear...
SO, I guess I hadn't really thought very much about it until yesterday...
We've been pretty busy between Heath not feeling great (it just takes him a bit longer than other kids to get his energy back after a cold, etc...) and just general life stuff. I guess thats a good thing--to be so busy and able to do "regular" stuff that we forget about things like heart catharizations, or that they can be a big deal.

so, we'll keep you posted, but we'll also ask for your good thoughts and prayers for heath, us and the medical staff at duke tomorrow morning!

sleep well.
