Not what we expected


Some of you may know that Tuesday Russ was supposed to be having a procedure to remove his catheter, instead we ended up in ER Monday night. Blood clot in the leg, overnight stay at Sharp Memorial, shots in the tummy, blood thinners for a few months and everything should be fine.
Everyday hands us another bump in the road to recovery. His home health nurse says this is common for his type of injuries. Boy, we are learning that we are not very good at bumpy roads. They make you tired and cranky.
Russ's sister arrives tomorrow I'm hoping she can cheer him up and get his mind off the pain that seems to be getting worse instead of better.
He starts back to re-hab in the morning for hand and wrist therapy ya having two hands will definitely improve his mood. Keep the prayers coming, I know my knees are getting calluses, Lord give us strength and humor in these trying times.

    I hope his pain improves more & that there aren't any more bumps in the road.
