Just keep swimming just keep swimming...

I'm not sure why this quote comes to me in hard times, I'm pretty sure it's from my seestar.  In my head it's from when I was giving birth to Avery but I'm pretty sure I made that up, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming"...sometimes, that's all you can do.

We went in for Myla's 15 month check-up, not usually mandatory but because of her issues we had to go.  It turned into a 2 hour adventure at Kaiser.  The good news: she gained 2.2 pounds and they are no longer worried about her growth (although we'll keep giving her donut holes because...why not?:)  The bad news, the heart murmur (did I mention that before?) is still present.  It's too hard to tell whether or not it's a big deal by just listening so we were sent to get a chest x-ray (2 view for you nurses out there) and an EKG, both of which my little Myla had to hold still for.  Dr. Weisser, our pediatrician felt that it was better to be safe than sorry but he didn't expect any abnormalities.

24 hours later a voicemail from Dr. Weisser...the chest x-ray was abnormal.  It showed an enlarged heart.  This could mean 2 things: first, and most likely, absolutely nothing is wrong, Myla just didn't take a deep enough breath when the x-ray was being shot; secondly, her heart is working hard for some reason and is enlarged.  So, we won a referral to cardiology!  This poor little kiddo, what can we do but just keep swimming?  Oh, and just keep praying:)  We got this!

She looks good to me!:)
