So, the nurse who schedules all of the heart stuff at the hospital calls me. I'm in my car at the parking lot of Office Depot. She says, "Hi, I'm calling to schedule Grace's fontan, I mean cath and sedated echo." Yikes...that's a freudian slip. So she gives me the date of June the 15th and tells me that we might have to stay overnight and then her case will be presented the following week to the surgeons and then surgery will be scheduled. So, I said...it's a pretty good chance she's gonna have surgery? There's a pause and then she says probably so. Basically these tests are the precursor. The surgery will happen 2 to 3 weeks after...just all depends on the schedule and both surgeons have to be around because her case is pretty complex, her words, not mine. So, again, I started feeling a little bit woozy and emotional because yet again I'm not emotionally prepared. I know the positives that she's younger, she'll forget it, she'll heal faster, she'll get it done faster...I know there's a lot of good things about the surgery...I just hate that she's going to have to have another traumatic event happen to her in less than a year. The worse thing...the daycare called and said her sats were really low after playing and just a bit a go they were again in the low 70s which isn't a great thing right now. She still has a nasty cough we can't kick. So, in my emotional mind I'm thinking she's really getting bad again which scares the heck out of me which makes me think let's get this thing done NOW!

On a brighter note, my girl is going to get to be in the front row of the Yo Gabba Gabba Live Tour in December! She is so in love with that show, especially Muno and Biz Marky. She wears her Muno shirt to bed and when she takes it off, she gives him a kiss and tells him bye-bye. If she could have any wish right now, it would probably be to see Muno and or Biz . We have like 4 shirts, the sheets, and all of the DVDs. It is what keeps her calm and we take the portable DVD player and the DVDs everywhere. I'll be bringing them to the hospital. I am hoping that the Gabba bunch will be the calming medicine when we go. I wish I could somehow contact them and tell them thank you for helping my girl when she's having a tough time. They make her day.
