It's been a very hard year for Tim and I. Tim's mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer and
the prognosis is not good. The doctors are saying 3-4 months.
This morning, Talus collapsed at the park. We rushed him to the emergency clinic thinking it may be his chylo again....
(some of you may remember his surgery about 4 years ago).
After a long day at the emergency clinic, many tests, many procedures, my boy will be staying overnight.
His heart rate is elevated (around 200 beats/minute) and he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure.
They are trying to get his heart rate down to a managable level where he can take oral medication. It's been a difficult process.
He was still elevated when I kissed him goodnight and we headed to the hospital to see my mother-in-law.
His cardiologist is concerned about how enlarged his heart is and that they cannot seem to get the rate lower. I can't go in to
see him, cause he gets too excited and his heart rate increases. He is in ICU right now, resting after all his tests, and sitting
with his blue dog bone (thanx Tracy(tacran)) and my hubby's sweatshirt. The girls in ICU still remember him from 4 years ago
and are taking excellant care of him. He attracts so much attention because of his size, I know he's getting lots of love...
Please say a prayer for my boy, I know that with the power of this forum how well your prayers work ....we need them again...
I will keep you all updated as often as I can....
