**Clarification**

In my earlier post today, I casually mentioned "Hannah" & "Pediatric Cardiologist" in the same sentence.
I guess that isn't nice!  Most of you didn't know the situation...

So here's the story:
Hannah has had a heart murmur since birth.  Apparently MOST kids have them until they are about 5... some pediatricians don't say anything  because they are 'normal' & no need for alarm.

However, Hannah's doctor didn't like what she heard at her 3-year well-child appointment.  It didn't sound quite normal to her - so to be safe, she sent us to the Children's Heart Clinic in Minneapolis.  We didn't really say anything about it because it was just a second-opinion type of deal.  We didn't even tell Tim's parents until we were on our way to the appointment.  We decided IF something turned out to be wrong, they should be in the know before hand!!

They took a chest X-Ray and listened to her heart for about 15-20 minutes.

Dr. Singh decided it sounded like "half of the kindergarteners in the state"& we could go home.

End of story!

Last year, at Hayley's 4th-year well-child exam, Dr. Benson sent her for an EKG within the clinic for her heart-murmur and they sent the strip to children's heart clinic for interpretation... I guess they can't do that anymore.
