Cath Tomorrow (Wednesday)

Echo went fine today. Cath is tomorrow around noon. I don't knew if they'll take a few days to talk about things or tell us tomorrow, but we should find out in the very near future where we're headed. Just the hope of going home with her own heart is pretty overwhelming right now. I don't think hope is normally an overwhelming thing since it's such a good thing, but in this case, I'm trying to keep a cap on it just in case they decide to go through with a transplant. That way maybe I won't have so far to fall emotionally. But, then again, at the same time, it's hard not to celebrate every good thing. So, see our predicament?

Bailey's doing really good. Dr. T turned her rate down to 30 this morning. (We were disappointed! He came in when we were still asleep and didn't even wake us up.) She's a little nervous about tomorrow's cath - not so much about the procedure itself but about the outcome. Either way, God is still God and we are still in the best medical hands possible.

The girls tie-dyed socks today out in the courtyard. (Two squirrels were out there playing and eating and one came over near Bailey. She had a panick attack yelling, "Get him, Mom! Get him!" Then she barked like a dog to scare him away. She then explained to me that she thought he was going to gnaw through her VAD cord. We're not stressed around here or anything.) It was fun though! But we got a little tye-dye on the table. Don't tell! Then, Marissa kept asking me over and over this afternoon if the socks were dry yet (because they dripped alcohol all over them and it takes hours to dry). In the midst of her asking me several times, Bailey got mad about something else, and Marissa came up to me and whispered, "I think she's mad about her socks not being dry yet!"

They've been working all day on their dance moves. They even got Marissa in on it and she's dancing with them now! They just might be on Star Search before you know it.

Well, please pray for us tomorrow. Hopefully things will go well!

Have a great night/day.

Love, Angie
