There was supposed to be a complete echo cardiogram done on Tuesday while little miss sedated for her cath...HOWEVER, there was a miscommunication of some sort and it wasn't done. so...we will be back up to good 'ole primary children's hospital again on Wednesday. Darla Jane will be sedated and they will be able to do a complete echo. It is always so scary when they need to sedate her, even if they aren't opening her up and doing heart surgery.
They are wanting to get all their ducks in a row, a complete view of her heart. Then, when it is time to have her surgery then they will know, completely, what they are working with...and on.
We need to be there at 7 am. I'm hoping we will just be there for the day. As long as she recovers from the sedation well, the day is all we should need.
We will also be getting chest x-ray (which is a standard procedure with every visit) and we will also visit with her cardiologist Dr. Mart. Hopefully there will be good things to report...or at least nothing bad. :-)
