Jack had a busy day today. We went to see Dr. Fishberger, his cardiologist, this morning. He was such a good boy. I am so proud of him. Before he was seen by the doctor they sent us for an EKG where they stick about 10 probes on his chest and belly and in 30 seconds the machine spits out a report. As it is printing, I can see "ABNORMAL EKG - ABNORMAL EKG - ABNORMAL EKG" printing across the top. That isn't the most comforting thing, especially when I now have to carry that report with no explanation back out to the waiting room. We finally got in to see Dr. Fishberger and the good news is, while his EKG was abnormal, it was no more abnormal than it has been since birth. He still shows signs of his Wolff-Parkinson-White, but it appears the Propranolol is keeping it at bay. Jack is home with a holter monitor for the next 24 hours.

All in all a good appointment. We will follow-up again in June.
