A LOT has happened over the past 3 days and it's time to fill you in....
My Great Aunt Estelle and Great Uncle Jerry came up for Asher's Birthday Party and an extended visit this past weekend. They live in Florida year round. Two days after the party Jerry started throwing up. We all figured food posioning...virus. Well three days later it didn't stop and my dad took him to Urgent Care. Mind you...Jerry is 86. They transported him to the hospital for a CT with Contrast. Keeping contrast down when you have been vomitting isnt an easy task. They concluded in the middle of the night that he has a bowel (intestinal) blockage. They inserted an NG tube and are waiting to see if it clears up over the next 24-48 hours. If it doesnt he has to have surgery. This is major for anyone of this age.
Unfortunately that is only the tip of the iceberg this week.
Additional Prayer Requests:
My Father in Law: He is experiencing severe hip back pain that is making it extremely difficult to walk. They are trying to get an MRI scheduled to find out if something happened in his back to cause this pain.
Cassidy's Grandma: She is 93 and had to have surgery this week. She suffered from a stroke in the middle of the night after the surgery.
Janie Meyers: Janie recently had back surgery (6 weeks ago) and was helping nicely. She fell and broke her ankle and re-injured her back.
My Godmother Cathy: She had last minute eye surgery this week due to a collapsing eye lid from her accident back in September 2009.
Me: I have pink eye. This is my 2nd bad eye infection in 3 months, the last one lasted an entire month. Please pray that Asher doesn't get it and that it doesnt spread.
I hate that this ia debbie downer post...but sometimes it isnt all peaches and creme.
I promise there are some FANTASTIC posts coming down the pipeline that I am really excited to share with the blog world.
