So as it turns out I have congenital scoliosis, which means that I've had scoliosis ever since I was born. If that's the case, you'd think it'd take the doctors less than FOURTEEN YEARS to figure it out, huh? Apparently I have an extra bone in my back, which is causing the scoliosis, and 20% of people who have that extra bone (wait... I'm not the only one?) have a heart anomaly (way to be specific there, doc). Looks like I might be one of those lucky 20%.
Anyways. So I was in Boston yesterday. I had a pretty good time. I worked on my coat (yes, I'm knitting it) and listened to a book on tape for much of the day. My appointment was at 2:00 at the Children's Hospital, and it took maybe two hours. It wasn't too bad, but it was pretty uncomfortable. I was mollified, however, by the fact that I got to watch Grease (one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE MOVIES) while she was taking pics of my heart and pulse.
Then I went back home, had my flute lesson, took a shower and went to bed. Just another exciting day in my extraordinarily exciting life. Now I'm chatting with my friend Shelby. While blogging. Wow. You know what? I'll make it up to you. Pretend that this post is not here, and I'll post another, completely made up one so you can read something worthwhile. Kay? :D Good.
