Scott Update

When Scott went in to the urologist on Friday the doctor said he was surprised Scott hadn't been in earlier! The stone was blocking passage in to the bladder and the doctor gave him a shot of pain medication immediately and then sent him straight over to the hospital for surgery.

Luckily I have some awesome friends, because I needed to find a place for the kids to go and quick! My friend Meesh arranged for Emily to stay with Kori's grandma, and the twins both stayed with Lori. I rushed to the hospital and got there right before they took Scott in. In just a few hours we were on our way home with a much happier Scott. His only complaint was that he was hungry... the first time he had an appetite in days! We picked up the twins and went with the Mooney's to Mexican food. Emily stayed the night with Kori, and could have cared less. She was actually quite clueless. All she knew was that for days her daddy didn't feel good, and now he feels much better!

Thank goodness for that! We are so glad to have our Daddy back!

My goodness...the Johnson family seems to be keeping the doctors in South Carolina busy! We'll be continuing to pray for Scott's recovery and for easier days ahead.

Ha ha! Isn't that the truth? :) This has been the summer of the medical procedures, that's for sure! If you include my c-section as a surgery, we've all had surgery in the past four months. Hopefully we've paid our dues so to speak. I'm done with medical issues! :)

I'm glad Scott is better. I've heard about the dreadful stones from different people. Let's just say that I'm glad I've not had to deal with that particular malady.
