Bummer of a Week

Well this was a rough week for us. I injured my back at some point last weekend and have been suffering for it since. The doctor believes I have a inflamed disk between my L5&S1 vertebrae. The same disk Brian had surgery on last year. The swelling is pinching my sciatic nerve, causing a lot of pain in my left leg. I had to work from home Wednesday through Friday because I could only stand or lay down and was not able to drive. I finally recieved some steroids on Friday night and am beginning to feel some relief. I'm praying that the swelling will continue to go down and I will not have any long term problems. To make matters worse, Hannah injured her right elbow on her last day at camp. For some reason she thought she was a gymnast, was doing cartwheels and hyper extended her elbow. She had to go to the doctors right after she arrived at the school. She went for x-rays yesterday but, we are waiting to hear back from the doctor. Thank God for Jamey's patience this week. Without her I would have been stuck at home and still be in a lot of pain.
