We were in the hospital until 7PM last evening awaiting results from an xray of Sally's leg and hip related to the pain she has been experiencing. Tim came at 7PM, and we spent the remainder of the evening with him..
Sally's radiation doctor called this morning, and indicated that they would be making an appointment for Sally at their Orthopedic Clinic in the JHH Bayview Hospital sometime this weekend. The orthopedic specialists will help find a solution to releive the pain.
Sally had a better night after a change in her pain medication... Now it seems to hurt only when she attempts to put her weight on the leg.. Of course, this makes her very uncomfortable, as there is a potential for bone breakage. We ride the shuttle to and from the Hospital, and use a wheelchair in the hospital which has been very convenient.
Sally's sister and brother ( Flo and Allen) are expected today.. Most of our children will visit tomorrow.
Thanks for your notes and messages.. They are very encouraging to us...

Hello, Dick and Sally.
ReplyDeleteRalph sent me your site, so we want to check it out.
We hope you are getting some relief Sally. We think of both of you often. Wonderful your children can be near and help also.
We'll leave you with this little verse.
Stand by the God of all the earth,
Stand by His servants true, of worth.
Stand by His saints, the faithful few:
Be sure the Lord will stand by you.
Love from us both.
