Storyboard Text
- The start of it all
- So how long has she had this heart murmur problem?
- What I had noticed
- Gosh, I am so tired.
- Finding the right person
- I am fine with anyone that can do their job and not do something wrong.
- We need to find a good doctor for this surgery. I don't want just any person to do it.
- This was the beginning of how I realized how things where going to change a lot for me. I was having mixed emotions on what my doctor had said at that time because I had nothing wrong with me. I had never come to think that I would be the one who would have something this big happen to me at this sort of age.
- The talk about the surgery
- Oh, I get it. So the aorta has been pinched and it's not letting enough blood to flow.
- Before the check up I did see that there was something wrong but I never had thought about it. I was very tired from running a very short distance and my heart would be pounding. I would be one of the last to finish the lap.
- How I felt
- When am I leaving this place? I wish i could eat normal food.
- My parents talked to me a lot throughout the whole time making sure I know what is going on but didn't want to scare me. To be honest I wasn't scared about the whole thing, I was just more shocked about it all. My parents did their research on my surgeon and liked him to do the surgery and I did too since I was comfortable with their choice.
- Present day
- Everything is okay now. I just have to work even harder.
- . My doctor was, Frank Handley, at Stanford Children’s Hospital. He was the best doctor out there that my mom had found, and I had put my trust into him. He explained to me and my parents what and how the surgery would go.
- After I had wakened up from being knocked out asleep for maybe a day; I was very dehydrated from not eating or drinking any water. It was a rough few days, but it got better. Being in a bed all day and a few times where I had to go through some painful places, I was glad to be okay.
- I am much grateful and now looking back on this huge event in my life I now see something different. I am very thankful to be able to have these normal experiences of doing track and I think it is really fun. Using this energy, I have to my advantage till this day will never make me forget these events that led up to this one big experience.
