Fun Week :(

This week has been an interesting one. First, on Wednesday I started my first class that I am teaching to my fellow teachers. It is a three week course and I have been a little stressed out about it.

Then on Thursday I got a call from Christian's school. He was feeling light-headed and was afraid he would pass out. So I had to arrange to leave school and pick him up. He went right to bed and after a few hours he seemed okay. I then had to leave to go to the dentist to check on a crack in a filling they had done a few months ago. They decided it would be better to go with a full crown then replace the filling. So...my mouth was killing me all day and part of Friday as well.

Since Christian hadn't felt good on Thursday and he had almost passed out at church a couple of weeks ago, I decided to have a doctor check him out to be on the safe side. They did a EKG on him and drew blood (of course he passed out when they took the blood). The doctor said Christian had a heart arrhythmia. He ordered a chest x-ray and told me to take him to a heart specialist at Phoenix Children's Hospital. What a thing to hear. It concerns me especially with my father's heart condition. I will be calling on Monday to make an appointment. Hopefully it is not something too big. And out life can go back to normal.

Keep us posted. We will be thinking about you guys and Christian is in our prayers. Tell Christian to get used to those needles. I'm sure he will be getting several more before this is through. :)
