Sweet Jada Boo
Oct. 13, 2008
Hopefully the beginning of ...
... nothing. Hopefully it is nothing at all. I want to keep a log just in case and this is the easiest way for me to do it.
On October 10, three-year-old Jada had her yearly check-up with our family physician. He heard a heart murmur.
He suggested that it is simply a flow murmur and we need not be concerned unless she exhibits symptoms of heart problems.
We took the weekend to consider the issue. She has always napped more often than our other children did at this age, and for longer periods of time. She has had dark circles under her eyes for as long as I can remember, suggesting that she is chronically fatigued.
I called our doctor this morning and left a message, requesting that we pursue the next step in determining what she is dealing with, rather than waiting for further symptoms to manifest themselves.
He immediately referred us to a pediatric cardiologist at the city hospital. Jada's appointment is at 9AM on October 23rd.
And so we wait ...
