I have been a little hesitant to post lately because I did not want to tell half truths. I hope that makes sense. I didn't want to post and say that all is well when it possibly is not. Makenzie has not been feeling so great. She told me a couple of weeks ago that her heart was pounding. She was sitting on the couch and had been for a while. I put Monty's blood pressure monitor on her and her heart rate was 123. Within a minute it was back in the 80s. This has happened a few times. Since she has a solitary kidney we periodically check her blood pressure. Lately her blood pressure has been from one extreme to the other. She saw the doctor and was referred to a cardiologist. The appointment is next week. Until then, please pray that it isn't anything to be concerned about. Makenzie is still able to play basketball. The doctor told her to use her judgment and come out of the game if her heart starts racing or she gets short of breath. Everyone else is doing well. Monty has 12 more sessions of cardiac rehab. He has a follow up appointment with the cardiologist this week. Makayla had to get glasses a couple of weeks ago. She will get her bottom braces next week. We will be busy running to basketball games, the cardiologist, and the orthodontist the next couple of weeks. Have a good weekend. Stay warm!
