On the Road Again...

Just a quick post to say that we are going to Norfolk tomorrow to see Dr. Magee - Harlie's plastic surgeon. I'm assuming that he'll be able to look at her and give us some idea of what our options are. I'm guessing he'll want another CT scan at some point. But hopefully he'll be able to tell me enough to get back with her cardiologist in DC to make some sort of "plan" for when her heart surgery will be. Not knowing how all these surgeries are going to play out is hard to live with.

I've been in kind of a grumpy mood I guess. Tom said he could hear the anxiety in my voice. I suppose I snapped at him. Maybe a couple of times. I just don't want to hear bad news. Waiting for an appointment, hoping for a good one, and then hearing bad news... UGH! I just don't want anymore of that! Is that too much to ask???? Probably. Especially at this stage in the game. We still have a lot of appointments ahead of us.

Well, must get some sleep. Wish us luck!

Christy - it's okay to be grumpy. This next year looks to be a tough one for you, for Harlie - for everyone in your family. When it gets too overwhelming, remember our motto ... one day at a time.

Hugs,
Ann
