Wish Us Luck!

Charlotte goes in today for a GJ tube placement. Nothing like an appointment to Interventional Radiology for a belated birthday celebration, right?

We're hoping that Charlotte doesn't need any sedation and that things go smoothly. There's also a chance that she will lose the button and be placed with a traditional PEG tube, which is more annoying and cumbersome.

In other news, Charlotte's cardiology appointment went well on Friday. The cardiologist said he saw periods of tachycardia, bradycardia and sinus stoppage, (fast heart rate, slow heart rate, and skipped beats) all of which he expected, especially given her reflux.

He gave us the go ahead to stop seeing Pulmonary Hypertension and just keep following up with our Pulmonary doctors. We're still treating her heart rate with oxygen, but it's working and that's what matters.

Yay for victories, large and small.
