    Packers Trip to the Cardiologist and more

    2 Comments

    Packer has had a heart murmur since birth but the Dr suggested we get it checked out just to have a better idea since he’s just a Family Practice Dr. So we went to Primary Children’s this afternoon and Packer did great and it turns out that its just your normal flow murmur that lots of kids have and usually outgrow around the age of 8 or 9. We were thinking that this was the case but its good to know and now there are no worries.

    While there the Doctor asked if we were Green Bay Packer fans… I was bewildered that he could guess that by just a few seconds in the room with us. I looked around to see if any of us had on our Packer shirts or what the clue was… Anyway – the big clue was obviousdly our sons name! I’m a little slow these days in the brain strength category.

    I’m glad that we had the test done and greatful that the results were exactly what we hoped to hear. My Father-in-Law actually had a minor heart attack this past week while they were here visiting, that was a little scary but he seems to be pulling through just fine. So we’ve had our share of Cardiologists for now.

    I'm glad that I don't have to worry about my little Pac Man - being healthy is such a blessing - I have always taken our good health for granted but I am starting to understand how blessed I have been.

     We said goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa Nettesheim yesterday. We had a lot of fun with them and were sad to see them leave. Luckily we get to see them in Wisconsin in a few weeks so goodbye wasn’t as hard this time.

    It was 9pm-ish and Packer was struggling.

    And here are our long lost friends… felt like we hadn’t seen the Hancocks in a long time. The kids were all happy to see each other on Sunday night and especially happy when Than played London Bridges, Duck Duck Goose, Cheep cheep, Red Light Green Light and Do as I’m Doing with them. Good Times.
