All they have is a black and white photo. I want a color one.

If you are getting this more than once, I apologize. If you feel you are getting this in error, I apologize; I am casting as broad a NET as I can with this request. My son will be 21 in June. In approximately 1999, I found a normally undetectable murmur because he had a very bad flu and his Cardiac Output was up, making the murmur much louder. I persuaded the "Peds at Night" pediatrician to hear me out, that the Hewlett Packard Stethoscope around my neck was not just for show........ ...........and my son was seen my the very BEST Pediatric Cardiologist in this area the very next day. He has an extremely rare heart condition in which there is an extra membrane in his heart that causes damage to the valve in his heart (Aorta) that lets blood out to oxygenate and feed blood to his body--sorry, I am not talking down to anyone; just don't want to get super technical for nonmedical folks. The cardiologist said had it NOT been found, my son could have been a statistic: "Dropped dead in the middle of a basketball/football/hockey/wrestling.....etc., game for unknown reasons." He was not allowed to play sports except for swimming, was cheesed off that he had to quit the wrestling team, and so on. Until now, the risks of the Open-Heart Surgery to correct this problem have outweighed the benefits. For several months, he has been having chest pain beneath his breastbone after riding his bicycle. He called me tonight, after NO exercise, with the same kind of chest pain--not radiating down his arm, no classic cardiac symptoms. I persuaded him to get it checked out nonetheless, and he was smart enough to take his records from his Pedi-Cardio Doc with him. An hour and a half later, after calling a listmate <<waves>> for prayers, and a local friend as well, I was about 15 seconds from hitting the door to go there. Then my son called, said "I'm sorry, they told me it's not cardiac, but they want me to stay for tests. I want to leave but my fiance is making me stay; I will be fine. They want to figure out why it is happening." I said "GOOD FOR HER." (Fiance) Asked would he still like me to come, he said no, he would be done soon, "I love you, Mom," would call me later, etc. He had his routine echocardiogram scheduled (has not had one in SEVERAL years, I cannot make him now, he is legally an adult <sigh>) for February. NOW, it appears it IS CARDIAC. The ER Doc was having trouble persuading him to stay and asked me some questions about the condition as well, because it is extremely RARE........ She put me on the phone with him; he was very upset, wanted to go home, nothing was working. Finally I told him: "If you sign out AMA..." ..... "What's that?" .......... "Against Medical Advice," ........."Oh, OK, yeah, I forgot, thanks......" ......... "Your insurance will be able to refuse to pay the bill for ANYTHING you have had done. You could wind up footing the bill for this entire night." (Huge sigh from him, but he is calmer.) "OK, that convinces me, and like the Doctor said, and you just said, being an inpatient puts me at the top of the list for the echocardiogram." He didn't want to talk after that; they won't let me come over there right now; he is at the age where they told me long ago the surgery might become a seriously necessary factor (and it is the full boat, open heart, heart, lung bypass sort of deal). Very likely he will be FINE, but I would like to please ask for any and all prayers, positive thoughts, vibes, whatever you do/choose to send. He is terrified, and no matter how much I am supposed to "know," so am I. This is my one and only child; he is my miracle baby--it is a miracle I was able to have him. Despite many things and problems, he has turned into a young man of whom I am so proud I cannot even say. Thank you for your time and thank you for listening.

I've heard that his weight gain in FK season 3 was because he'd quit smoking. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kristin" <kris1228@e.......> To: <FORKNI-L@l.......> Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2006 1:39 AM Subject: Re: Ger's on Fox :) He's a lot bigger than FK season 3, but he seems to be aging gracefully, overall. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2006 11:13:28 -0500 From: Cindy Clark <clarkcindy@m.......> Subject: Re: Ger's on Fox :) Yes, I noticed this too.
