After Eli's seizure, we were all worn out! We had a fall festival on Saturday and then church on Sunday. Mark kept Eli home for the weekend to give him time to recover. Mark moved the wrong way on Sunday, and his back went out. I took him to the doctor on Monday to get it checked out. The doctor diagnosed it as muscle spasms and prescribed some medication to help him function. Thankfully, he was feeling much better by Tuesday. He was able to put away his cane and head back to work.
He had a short business trip on Wednesday and Thursday (insert some grumbling and complaining on my part). We were able to get back to a "normal" routine for the weekend. On Sunday, we traveled to Jonesboro (AKA "The Big City") to take Mark out to eat for his birthday, which was the next day. Monday morning, Mark woke up early with chest pains. I woke up the children and drove Mark to the ER (I know we probably should have called an ambulance...). They ended up keeping him overnight for observation. Thankfully, all of the tests came back normal. I am so thankful that he is OK. What a way to spend his 40th birthday!
I am hoping and praying that we have patronized the local medical community enough for a while! I am thankful that everyone is doing well, and that none of our issues ended up being serious.
