I had an appointment with a cardiologist this morning because I've been having "skipped beats" and rapid heart rate since about week 5 of pregnancy. I scheduled the appointment on February 22. Had an EKG on that same day and then called back notifying them of the EKG that had been done (not in their office) on February 26. This morning, I had a sneaking suspicion that I wasn't on the schedule since no one had called to remind me of anything. I called to confirm and was right: They didn't have my name on the schedule anywhere and furthermore, "didn't have a record of me ever MAKING an appointment." After arguing (nicely) for a while, I hung up the phone with a new appointment date of JUNE 15! I cried and cried and cried. Then I called Bryan and cried some more.
Meanwhile, I told my Katie about my frustrating morning. (I'd been patiently waiting to get reassurance from the cardiologist since February 22.) And Bryan somehow called back & got me an appointment for next week. I don't know how, but he did and I love him for it. He takes such good care of me always. I feel truly blessed.
When I got back from school pick up, Katie was waiting for me on my front porch with a double chocolate ganache cupcake in her had which she gave to me. I don't know why, but I have been blessed with such amazing, wonderful friends - especially Katie. She does so much for me - and for everyone around her! It made my heart so happy to have her waiting with a big ol' hunk of chocolate. What a blessing!
