Tattle Tales Need Not Apply....

If you know me at all then you know I have verbal diahrea. Stuff falls out of my mouth when I do not have my foot in it. This Blog is to let my friends know what life is like with Alex. Sometimes, I will say not nice things. I will use bad words. I will type like I speak. If you are easily offended then this blog may not be the place for you. This is my place to shout, bitch and moan about all the wonderfulness that is Ebstein's Anolmaly and having a "baseball" husband.

CHAPTER 1.....AND MAYBE CHAPTER 2


Ok, we are here...in LA...sunny 80 degrees..actually  a little hotter in the hospital cafeteria.  We are waiting (as usual) for the procedure to be done...it's gonna take a while since it just started. They started with a quick look at the pulmonary artery where his shunt connects and now we are having a full on Left/Right Heart Catheterization....complete with general anesthesia and breathing tube.  So far it's been ok...i haven't had to yell...YET.  I've gotten my way on everything...who the cardiologist is...who is doing the cath.  At some point the surgeon will have to poke his head out of his office like he's a prairie dog and face me...or I'll stalk him till I find him...the other cardiologist have already warned him...damn...i like to surprise them.  Basically we have nothing to do but sit and wait...and wait...and wait...and eat.  The food sucks...pizza tasted like plastic and Charlie had some chicken strips that I think had been cooked yesterday.  Right now I'm just entertaining myself at looking for docs that I know and looking at people who  don't seem to fit in a hospital setting....I would take a pic of this lady's shoes but I'm pretty sure she would notice.  Tyson wants me to carry the computer with me some when I find a doc I can ichat him....he thinks it's funny when someone else gets yelled at that's not him.

Mostly we are just sitting....I'm sure that'll get old really quick...as will listening to my dads jokes...we laugh cuz he's the blood donor.  I already saw Alex's anesthesiologist outside eating lunch, which means she left  him the hands of a Fellow.  I guess that's ok since the hard part...IV, breathing tube was already done...I will be checking up on it.  This morning was disappointing because I was gonna take a pic of the MJ shrine that was out front but someone cleaned it up...his shrine didn't even last a week.  They should have sent Tito to guard it...he's not doing anything anyway.
