Watch as Madison gives her mother a heart attack...

Hi,
Well here's what you missed, last Thursday Madison and I went for our six week check up with our family doctor.  Which was supposed to be just a quick check, nothing big.  However, in true Madison form, the doctor found something.  A hernia in Madison's groin; it is called an inguinal hernia.  The doctor was surprised that no other doctor had found it.  This kind of hernia will need, you guessed it, surgery!  Hopefully the surgery for the hernia and the surgery for the omphalocele can be done together, I will ask the surgeon tomorrow.  Also, on Monday night everything was going just hunky dory, until...(there baaaack!!!)...white poops!  OMG!!  I see them and immediately started bawling my eyes out, the only think I could think of was biliary atresia...biliary atresia...liver biopsy...liver transplant...(and then more crying...you get the picture).  So Tyler and I decided that it the white poops were not gone by the next day we would call the surgeon.  So the next day, the big white poops were waiting for us, so I called Dr. Ecceles' office and I asked if she could see Madison today, and the receptionist said that Dr. Ecceles was on holidays.  The receptionist told me to either call my family doctor or come to the emergency.  So I call Dr. Hyde's office, and asked if I could leave a message for her, the her receptionist informed me that she was off for the day!  Just my luck.  So I packed up Miss. Madison and I also packed a bag just in case (plus if I didn't my mother would never let me hear the end of it, learnt my lesson), and we went to the children's hospital.  The wait was so short and most of the people were nice(one EMT told me to move up to the sign, just so the nurses could see me, and so that if any other people came there would be room; well, the sign was less then two feet away from where I was...man, some people really just need to find real work!).  Anyways, so the doctor came and asked us a bunch of questions...blah, blah, blah...then the lab came and took poor Madison's blood (which they got on the first try...finally), and then by the time all of that was done...Madison had yellow poops!!!!!!!!!!!  Can you believe that...gosh, you know I really hope she knows how many times she has almost given me a heart attack!!  So anyways, she has had yellow poops since then, and no one knows why that happened.  So Madison and I go to see the surgeon tomorrow, and hopefully Dr. Ecceles will take off the piece of umbilical cord that has been hanging on for dear life, it has started to detach itself, it is kind of like a wiggly tooth, you want to pull it out but it is so completely disgusting that you really don't want to have to touch it!  But it stinks!!  Anyways, ramble ramble...I will say goodbye.  I will let you know how the surgeon appointment goes.  Also this week I have a special treat, I am meeting with a lady who is having a baby with a giant omphalocele tomorrow.
