Hey Family
Had a really terrible weekend with J W's shoulder. He has been in so much pain. Can't dress himself, etc. Took him to Lubbock yesterday morning for the cat scan and today he is to have an MRI. From all I have pulled up on the internet, he must have an injury (?) to his rotator (sp?) cuff in the shoulder. Other people I have talked to that have had the condition tell me that it is very very painful and very slow to heal (tendons)Doctor gave him some pain pills last week but he got no rest at all Sat night (or me either) so same thing coming up on Sunday night so I took him back to ER so see if they could give him something stronger.They did not have any meds in stock that he could tolerate so doctor told him to double up on the pain pills and take 2 every 6 hours instead of 1 every 8 hours. Wish we had done that Sat night, oh me....Anyway maybe they can see what the problem is after MRI today but I'm sure not much can be done about it other than time to heal. We are both pretty worn out.
Eletia, hope you are strong enough to go back to work tomorrow. You have been in our thought and prayers and we are hoping for a good recovery for you. Guess you will have Monday off so that will give you another good day off. Stay out of the moving process with the kids!!!I know they are excited and they will make it fine. Did not know for sure when April & Zac are moving but understood that Blair & Jay are moving this weekend. School got started here so maybe things will get back to normal business wise. It has been a really slow summer.Kittie came and mowed our yard last night but haven't seen anyone else..Got to get to work. Love, Maw
