Hello all! I just got back from the hospital. Leah looks much better, and wants to go home! They stuck the camera down her throat to do the test and the next thing she knew she was back in her room. It sounds like they did not flat line her, but gave her a jolt anyway, which got everything back into rhythm.
They are keeping her over the weekend, as I think I already mentioned, to do a MRI on Monday. One of her nurses today indicated that tomorrow will be soooo busy, trying to squeeze 3 days worth of patients in on one day, that it may not happen until Thursday! He was going to check and make sure she was on the appointment list, not the wait list and let her know. He hadn't found out by the time I left, so we are all just to will hers to be the first MRI of the day, so that the results come back early and then she can get on home!
She thinks the MRI, is so they will have a base line, if this ever happens again and to see if it will tell them anymore about why this happened.
She has had lots of visitors bringing food so that she doesn't have to eat the hospital cardboard mystery meat, overcooked veggies & weak broth etc. and is very happy to hear the well wishes from all of you great bloggers.
I know she is looking forward to telling her tale herself (and will be much better at it than I) so I will leave it at that.
Thank you all for your good wishes for Leah and here's hoping you all have a healthy Merry Holiday!

Thank you for letting us know Reb. It would be lovely if she could be home for Christmas. I'll keep my fingers crossed (except for when I'm tearing up bread for stuffing tomorrow) and will continue to send my best thoughts her way.
Have a great Christmas yourself!
Thanks Hilary, I just know with all of us willing it to happen it is going to work.
You have a good Christmas too!
Reb: glad to hear Leah is feeling well and eating well. Let us know if you hear anything else today, 'kay?
Thanks for keeping us posted. So glad that her heart's back doing what it's supposed to again!
Have a really, really great Christmas.
Sis, will do.
Crabby, thanks, it is a relief. Merry Christmas to you and the Lobster too.
I posted in Crabby and Baggies comments as well as here. Just to make sure everyone hears.
Leah had her MRI today and is just waiting on the Doctors to look at it and tell her she can go home. She will call tomorrow with the results. Which I will dutifully post.
