Word from Dr. Skaggs, "It's very rare that it got fixed by itself!"

@7:40am.  I can smelled the medicines, the needles, the sadness , the happiness.. as soon as I walked into the hospital.  Iz's had an annual Orthopedics checked up this morning.  Iz got diagnosed with anterior wedged vertebrae 3 years ago. Dr can't do nothing about it because she is too young. Besides they didn't know if this would become worse and affect her walking.

Got the stickers from the front door, walked passed by donate blood center, the surgical waiting room, got into the elevator, up to 4 floor.  Checked in , sat for about 10 mins.

I heard, "Goodman!" As usual the nurse didn't know how to pronounce Iz's first name.  We walked to the nurse and she asked silently, "How to you say her first name?"

"e..sa..bow!" I said.  Then we followed behind the nurse. X-tray is needed. Tooked the pictures [ according to Iz]. My heart rate increased, was nervous and didn't know what would be next.  Bad news, Good news?  After the x-tray, the nurse showed up again, took us to room #2.

We sat there for another 10 mins, Dr Skaggs walked it, followed by a question, "Do you see anything abnormal about her lately?"

"DAMN IT, WHAT NOW?"  I said it out loud in my head.

"Nope, she seems fine to me, Dr" I answered his questions.

"Me too!" Dr.Skaggs with a huge smile, then continue," It's very very rare that it got fixed by itself.  I never seen that before. Whatever it was, it was gone. CONGRATULATION!" He shake Iz's hand , then mine. He left.

I can finally finally put down the rock that deep in my heart. I can breath better now, I can fly, I can smell the happiness better, I can sleep better, I can ... I can.. and I can..

Thank you God! And also A special thank to LISA HICKEY, Izzyboo's OT forever!
