Update

Let's see... the last time I posted was the 15th.... what has happened since then?

Saturday I worked on homework. We were thinking of going to John's bday party in Gilbert, but I really wasn't feeling well. Still in pain and by evening I am in a lot of pain and exhausted from it. Sunday we get a call that John was in a motorcycle accident and is in ICU. We talk to Denise and decide to go to the hospital after work on Monday.

Monday morning we get in to work to find out that John DeVault, Steve's former boss and a friend, passed away on Friday afternoon. What a shock!! I had planned on leaving work early anyway due to a doctor appointment and to get the jeep back, but left even earlier as the leaky eye syndrome was uncontrolled! To anyone who knew John, here is a link: John E. DeVault

I had my doctor appointment on Monday, the 18th. My knee is still hurting really bad. After the doc played around with it and going off of my symptoms, he thinks I have a torn ligament. And he said that I could require surgery.... to which I started crying! So today after work I go for my MRI. UGH!

We also did go see John on Monday. He is out of ICU. He has road rash, a broken collar bone, some broken ribs, a broken cheek bone, and a broken nose. I do have to say though that he looked better than I or Steve expected. We were going to go last night but Steve got home too late. I will go today either before and after my MRI or just after the MRI.

And to top it all off, Alex is home sick today. I got a call from the school yesterday and had to leave early (again) to go get him. By the afternoon he was running a fever. It started at 101.5 but moved up from there. Sigh...

I need a vacation!
