Rough Weekend

Heston had a rough weekend this past weekend. He hurt his back about 2 and a half weeks ago, but after a very painful week and a half it seemed he was on the mend. He had a full week of work which ended with a sports banquet Friday night. After it was over he joined us for small groups. We stayed late and talked and played games etc. Heston was looking forward to an exciting day of fishing with his buddies now that his back was feeling better.

HOWEVER….

Saturday morning at 8:30 Heston woke up yelling and screaming because he was in so much pain with his back! I thought maybe it would go away but it seemed to be getting worse. So I was half asleep trying to call the hospital and his family to see if someone could come help me get him in the car. We got to the ER around 9:30 and they gave him a shot and a muscle relaxer to try to help alleviate the pain. It seemed to help and then they took x-rays to rule out any broken ribs or fractures. The x-rays came back negative and although they don’t know what is causing this extreme pain, they sent him home with muscle relaxers and pain medication and told him to take it easy for the next few weeks and hopefully it will heal itself. The medications make him very sleep so he slept most of Saturday evening and part of Sunday afternoon. The rest is what he needs, I guess.

Here are some pictures of him and Phoebe enjoying some quality time. Phoebe lover her daddy =)

We would appreciate your prayers concerning Heston’s back and also prayers for our future. We will keep you posted!
