In The Land of EKG: Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Part #2
Okay, I can't leave the last post like that. We need some humor, don't we?So, at the EKG for Eldest yesterday, he looked so solemn. He laid on the bed as the technician applied the stickers and attacked the wires. He looked worried. I was worried. I had just heard about PB.
I sat at the end of the bed.
I slowly crept my hands to touch his head, stroke his hair and said...
..."Zzzzzzztd," as I suddenly stiffened my fingers and grabbed his head. Zap!
Yep, I made an electrocution sound.
It made Eldest smile. It made me smile. It made CG smile. It made the technician smile.
Tension from the room gone. Okay, mostly gone.
CG said if was effed up.
Hell yes it was, but it worked. When life gets you down, when in doubt, insert humor.
Yep, that's how Scout rolls. Heh!
UPDATE: Psssst... Want to hear it from CG's perspective? Yes, Scout's CG, My CG, blogs. Yes, he does. He wrote about the the kids' EKG with more details here.

nice approach, zapping the tension out of the room.
Hilarious! That would be something I would have done too. Always insert humor to lighten the stress......
