In The Land of EKG: Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome
It's that freak thing that happens when an otherwise perfectly healthy athlete drops dead on the field.
A ticking time bomb.
Turns out it can be genetic.
Good News: The local hospital was able to finally see my three kids for EKGs.
We got it done yesterday. The boys' EKG results turned out normal.
Bad News: PB's EKG turned out borderline abnormal. We wait for Seattle Childrens hospital to review her results. We have to wait a few days because of the long week-end.
For now, I do what all mothers do. I worry.I should have know the child that looks the spitting image of him with dark eyes, dark hair, a tendency to be a bit "furry" would also have his heart.
She has my heart as well...
...in a worried vise.
