tired and scared

Here we are in the early morning hours in a cold and sterile room in the emergency department at the hospital. We arrived at just past 1 a.m.

HotMomma is finally resting comfortably in a bed after a series of tests. I sit in a simple and extremely uncomfortable chair as we wait anxiously for the radiologist to come and take HotMomma for a risky CAT scan to rule out a potentially life threatening blood clot.

We're tired and scared of the possible side affects such a scan can have on our unborn son. It's a risk we have to take.
