Update

Since my last post my dad and I went to Arizona, I drove he was in pain!

We have the LA Boat show the second week of Feb.

Boats have to be finished! No matter what apparently :}~

Dad had patterns to make, I helped as much as I could.

( got to see Amanda for a short HI) We got home Monday 1/12.

Dad is starting to feel better... Mind over matter!

On Thurs 1/15 Regan, my dad and I left again on a journey to Valencia, CA

and then to Lake Havasu, AZ

(dad did better NO pain meds in about 2 days!)

Dad did drive quite a bit this trip, I was so glad Regan was with us, 3 drivers

made the trip possible. My dad and mom came home Sunday 1/18...

Regan and I made it home Saturday night 1/17, (we saw Amanda,Lindsey, Tyler and the kids this trip!) (we wanted to go to church in our ward!)

Mom had been babysitting my sisters kids so Regan and I drove her truck home

and she rode home with dad.

Dad has actually worked full days all this week. He is amazing!

SO SAD

Today about 3:30 my Dad left the shop to go get something to eat.

He went to the ARBY's just down the street.

Here's the sad part!

He got out of the truck and started walking in...

Fresh snow and a sheet of ice under the snow, and my poor Dad lost it!

(you have to understand, my dad has reflexes like a cat)

He didn't even know he was going down until he heard the cracking

and felt his head hit.

IHC really couldn't find anything wrong, they assumed he cracked a rib,

the X-ray didn't show a break.

He went home and could barely move.

My parents Home Teacher came to give him a blessing and

as luck has it his name is DR. Gibby and he owns

Riverwoods Imaging.

Dr. Gibby told my dad that this is more than a cracked rib,

he thought he had crushed his spine!

On Tuesday after a 3 hr MRI, the diagnosis is in..

My Dad cracked 4 vertebra, and herniated 5 discs.

6 t0 8 weeks recovery...

(So not my dad, he's sure he can heal in 1 week)

He is in SO much pain, It breaks my heart!

I LOVE YOU DAD,

I hope you feel better soon.

Some painted changes but pretty much the same.

This was a really fun Home and a great place for the girls to grow up.

The house is for sale again :(

The people who bought it were in love with the house and each other, they wanted to get married in the gazzebo. Apparently they were not that in love,

they were divorced over a year ago. SO SAD
