This morning we woke up to calls from Tina about Andrew in pain. Come to find out it was his apendix and had to have surgery to have it removed. He took it like a champ, even so to the point when he met the surgeon he was miraculously head to wear his pain was gone, even jumped up and down and didn't flinch when the dr pressed his stomach.
Around 1 pm, David was in alot of pain and could hardly walk. I pretty much gave it as a demand that we were going to the hospital. Since my Crosley gang was already there, we chose that hospital. While the ER was...typical, it was a blessed time. We prayed with a couple of families and even met a pastor of a local church. This is not our plan we had,as life never works that way.
So the diagnosis: dislocated right hip.
What can we do? Pray. The hospital can only do so much with 0 grantee that when he steps off the bed it wont pop out of place. Its good to know what were are facing.
Next up: find an ortho that will work an uninsured patient. And see if we can get him insurance!
Tina & Joe thanks for the burgers. You guys are amazing parents. We love you guys so much!
Kim: thank you for taking my shift. It truly ment alot. Your an amazing person and I pray I can return the favor one day!
April: thanks a billion helping me with my mccrisis!

Ouch! Did they put/pop his hip back in place? I hope you get insurance soon and they can look at a permanent solution. Linda Cavanaugh (news anchor) had some amazing hip surgery that changed her life. Maybe google her and see where she went and research her procedure? Prayers for healing and being pain-free for David!
No they couldn't do anything except take an x ray and give him meds. They recommended us to an orthopedic. His left looked fine but his right one looked off but still walkable, just painfully tho! Thats the one he had revised in 2000. Ill Google her hopeful get some insight. Thanks for the prayers. Love you guys
