Well, things are about the same. I'm exhausted from working the 2 jobs and trying to run around doing all the other things that are needed. However, I'm thankful for the extra money! Unfortunately I have not been on the bike for anything more than commuting.
We had appointments yesterday in Rockford. Gaven had his front tooth repaired. It took a couple of hours for all his dental work to be done - he had a bad cavity in the back of his mouth as well as the tooth that was cracked in half.
The front tooth repair looks great - you can't really tell that it is even fake...although he will never be able to eat an apple without cutting it up again!
After that we went and ate at Tom and Jerry's in Rockford, I had worked there for years and one of the cooks I worked with there is now the owner so it was nice to see him and visit for a little bit.
Then we were off to see the electrophysiologist for Brendon. They will be doing a test at Christ Hospital which will require them to sedate Brendon and then they will determine if he has extra cells that have grown in his heart (this is a very non-technical and simplified explanation). I am not sure of the date for this yet because they will contact us next week with open appointments. He was seen at his normal cardiologists office in Rockford and the electrophysiologist, Dr. Zimmerman is from Chicago.
If it is not that then it could be that he has developed a sensitivity to adrenalin which causes the fast heart beat and the palpatations. If this is the case (keeping my fingers crossed) then notes will be sent to the school so that they will be more comfortable when he does have symptoms.
So, that's where we are now. I'm still unpacked and doing what needs to be done - in between shifts.
Well, Happy Riding for you folks who manage to get some riding time in!

Ben and Jerry always seem to take the edge of things, don't they?
Happy riding to you.
