I hate that "C" word, don't you? Praying that the doctor is able to correctly assess his needs.

I truly hope you all can figure out a way for your mom to be able to get to travel.
Thats a hard one especially when she looks forward to it. Is there any way round it ? is it far from one place to another
i really hope you can get something sorted

We have been trying to visit him constantly, but he doesn't want company. He can barely get up from his seat because it hurts his chest too much to move. He says it is just soreness and not any pain. I don't know what to do! I feel so bad that he is in pain. Especially with his age, I think it is going to take quite some time to recover. He said if he doesn't feel any better by the end of the week that he'll go to the doctor. All of this on top of the storm is really no picnic!
i really wood try and get him to go and see a doctor he may have cracked or broken ribs. and if one of them went in to his lungs yes it may be only sorness from the seatbelt but at that age the bones are more fragile
I will keep him and your family in my thoughts

Good night, y'all!
Hello all!
Before I get to the replies...hubs and I (and the animals) are all okay! We actually sustained little damage from the storm itself, which is surprising considering we have 5 trees in the yard and our neighbor's branch lying almost directly on top of our cable and power lines. We did lose power a total of 4 times...first time from about 5-7pm, second time from about 8-9pm, then again from 9:15-9:30pm, then last from 9:45pm until about 3pm today. It was quite rough...I have never been in a situation where I'd been without power for more than 3 hours. I have never slept with so many blankets or with so many clothes on! It was pretty fun though...I went across the street to our neighbor's house during the second power outage and we drank hurricanes (which are quite yummy!). Hubs wanted to stay behind with the animals so I didn't stay long, but it was still a bit of fun in the midst of all the craziness! We didn't have too much rain but the wind was relentless! Also, we did sustain a little bit of damage...not from the storm but because of our water heater! It must've started to leak overnight because when we woke up this morning, almost our entire basement floor was covered! Thank god for our wet/dry shop vac! We worried for a while whether or not we had hot water, but I did take a shower when the power came back on and it hasn't leaked since. This is the second time this has happened in a year so we are a bit concerned. Anyone have any water heater advice?
I'm glad to see most everyone has checked in, but I am still worried about those we haven't heard from. Continued good thoughts to all!
I am so sorry to hear this Jennifer! I hope he recovers quickly.
Good thoughts going your way!!!!
I purchased Delsym on Jennifer's advice and it worked pretty well! It didn't work right away for me, but I think that's because I'd had the cough for a few weeks before I bought it. But in about a week, I had no cough! Hope you are feeling better!!
No problem! I will continue to think of her.
Good luck with the surgery and I hope you heal quickly!!!
I love it! And your cat looks so much like my Sangria!! <3
What app is it, CM3? I would love to have one on my iPhone!
Oh my goodness Star! You make the most beautiful cakes!!! Love it!!
Glad you were able to make it home on time! Hope you had a great trip! <3
Hubs and I went as Lt. Dangle and Det. Clementine Johnson (the blonde cop on Reno 911!) for Halloween two years ago! It's the picture on the front page of our wedding website (if you click the link in my signature). That was probably my favorite EVER costume! Hubs was so nervous to wear shorts that shirt, but he pulled it off so well! I bet your DH looked great as Dangle too!
I hope you're feeling better, Seawaters! You are never far from my thoughts!
Glad to hear you feel good post-surgery! Continued good thoughts for a speedy recovery!
That's how we felt last night! I almost didn't want to go to bed but finally I was just too tired to stay awake. It was very scary getting woken up by gusts of wind though!!
I think that is really for the best. I admire you for wanting to do as much as you can, but rest is so so important. Best wishes, as always!
That is CRAZY! I hope they can figure out what's wrong with her! =(
Feel better soon, Solice!
I am so sorry to hear this! My 85 year old grandpa is the SAME WAY and it is so frustrating sometimes. My mom literally has to cry to get him to go to the hospital when he's not feeling well. I really hope he will decide to go on his own soon...it sounds serious. =( Sending good thoughts his way.
Oh my gosh Star, that is so sad. Could your sister come visit her? I hope there can be a happy resolution to this situation.
I am so sorry MerryNoel...that awful "c" word strikes again! Sending healing thoughts your way.
Haha, I am glad he stayed, but heartbroken with who left. While she wasn't my ultimate champ, I definitely don't think it was her time to go yet. Seems like week 6 of the competition just doesn't like her! A shame. =(

Oh Star.......This breaks my heart. I am so sad about this. Insurance companies are nothing but %W%$$%$ in my opinion !!!! They always seem to hit you the hardest when you most need them. I am praying something turns out for this situation......((HUGS))) xo
MerryNoel, I am so sorry to read this. Your dad will be added to my prayer list...xoxo
Rest, my dear wonderful friend xoxoxoxo Thinking of you and praying for you always xoxo
