What a Day.......

Hi Guys,

Madi is doing just fine but unfortunately yesterday's visit to the cardiology clinic landed us being admitted to the hospital :( We took her in for an echo but and when we got there her heart rate was a little low so they did an EKG and her heart rhythm was concerning as it wasn't really a normal rhythm at all! So, with that we got admitted to try and figure it out. The good news is that after drawing some labs we found out she had a low potassium level which is most likely what was causing the rhythm problems! Yay! Anybody would have rhythm problems with a low potassium level, so they just gave her some and her rhythm seems to be much better now :).

So, now we will just wait and see what the doctors say today, they may keep her for more observation but they may also keep her and send her to the cath lab to learn more about all her other issues while she's here. Besides the little rhythm disturbance yesterday her heart hasn't shown significant improvement since our move to sea level so the cath lab would give us a more accurate picture of what's going on and what to do about it!

So, in the mean time my AMAZING parents got on a plane yesterday and flew to Houston in the blink of an eye to help us as we have to close on our new house today! What would I do without them! ..........I really have no idea! And ........I can't forget about our friends Adam and Erin, they were so nice to take in our doggies for a night so they weren't locked up in a darn hotel room forever while we are at the hospital, thank you guys!!!!! I love those dogs so much and always worry about them when we're at the hospital, so that is just one less thing to worry about!

Anyway, a lot has happened in 24 hours but we are doing just fine and Madi is great right now :). Thanks as always for the thoughts and prayers!

Love Tabi
