What a whirlwind life we are leading right now. We closed on our new house on February 13th. Our packers came on February 14th, to pack up Itaska, and the movers came on the 15th. Today is March 3rd and a little over two weeks later. We are almost completely unpacked. No one would believe we have only lived here two weeks- and this so feels like home. Our Itaska house is on the market, so please pray that it sells quickly and for a fair price.
Now the sad news- Dan's Dad, Russ, has in recent days been falling more and more for no apparent reason. The other day he fell hard and landed on his shoulder. I was giving him Motrin for the pain, but it just wasn't cutting it. So yesterday at about 12:30 pm I took Dad to Saint Anthony's Medical Center and we waited, and waited and waited. Finally around 3 pm we were seen by a doctor. They did lots of blood work, a urinalysis, Xrays and a CT scan. Everything was healthy and normal except he has 3 broken ribs :( They are keeping him for pain management, but also when he's doped up on the meds I don't quite know if we could handle him at home without help.
The next few days should be interesting. I'll try to keep everyone updated through the Blog. Prayers for a fast recovery for Dad would be much appreciated. And a special prayer for my mom who pitches in at a moments notice to help out all the time would also be appreciated.
