Today was one of those days that you don't seem to get caught up... I feel exhausted, kids slept in, it was picture day and the meltdown in the morning almost throw me over the edge, not to mention the "new" routine my older boy does at drop off, he just starts this screaming fit, and runs away... and yes i am the mom that just walks away, he literally is fine in 5 seconds... Well now is 9:05 a.m.... Me & Lorenzo are heading to Children's Hospital, after 32 minutes of trying to find were to park, and trying to understand the new construction, we finally found the valet parking and yes we are in the building, and I must confess, tax money, grants, whatever it is funding this place, looks like is doing a great job, new building looks awesome... so.. i'm happy & impress, Lorenzo and i keep following the yellow brick road to cardiologist in the third floor... and then just like the house that felt into the wicked witch, the desk lady saids those famous words, I'm sorry we don't have appointments for today, so can it be? again? miss communication? i thought i called two days ago to confirm.. am i going crazy?... But no it wasn't me, the cardiologist works in both hospitals, and today been thursday, he is working at Mercy... so somehow i must get my car back, drive all the way there and make it on time... it is 9:50 a.m. already.... sooooo here i am again in the tornado of stress and anxiety... drove to mercy, in lights speed... found the office, check in been aware i am 32 minutes late... and now i sit and wait, and wait some more, and some more...exactly 2 1/2 hours...
Lorenzo had an EKG, and an echocardiogram, both thank god seem normal, the doctor was great and even so the stress of watching your baby with all of this wires and stuff, really gets to you, after that kind of morning and feeling physically and emotional exhausted.... when he said i don't need to see him till 6 months from now... the tears of joy, starting to fall down my face...and of course i get the look of OMG this mom is over the edge from the nurses, but who cares...
What is the next step? the big ones, Neurologist & Genetics both in MAY.... now lets get physical therapist started.... so i get the impression long day on the phone tomorrow... I wish i had an easy button for all of this... :)
