PCMC

The first thing we always have to do when we get to PCMC is let Addie toss coins in the fountain. We have done this since she was old enough to toss things and so now it is tradition. The fun fountain that used to be in side the north lobby is now gone and so we have to use the fountains outside the north entrance. Which means, we always have to use the north entrance even though the cardiology dept is on the south end.

We had a short wait before they came to get us for the EKG and echo. The cardiology waiting room is a big playroom with lots to do, so Addie was disappointed that our wait was so short. She didn't get to finish coloring her picture.

After her vital signs and EKG were taken, (Holy crap! O2 saturation of 91%) Addie changed into a hospital nightgown and got to choose a toy from the prize box. She took the little beany tiger and also got some tokens for the toy machine since she was so good for her EKG. She got a few more after her echo and ended up with a total of 5 tokens (3 bracelets, a ring, and a little rubbery man). She had to have some lab work done and got a prize after that too.

After we were all done we went for some lunch at the PCMC cafeteria. All she wanted was a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios, which she eats all the time at home, but whatever. She also had to have her chocolate milk and a pink glazed doughnut. We got out of there pretty quickly, all things considered. We left the hospital around 3:30. Not too bad. And we beat traffic for the most part. We are supposed to go back for another follow up in November.

Our cub scouts held a Mother's Day dinner tonight, so I went with Jack to that. It was very nice. Then we had to leave that quickly to get to his game. Unfortunately he had the late game today and it was cold! I've said it before and I'll say it again, there is some weird vortex over that ballpark where the wind blows ALL THE TIME!!! Jack's team lost, but they had some good hits.
