Pain

Monday afternoon, Aaron woke up from a nap in severe pain in his lower back.  I gave him pain medication, called his surgeon and waited for an answer.  He was in so much pain that I just didn't know what to do. This pain was worse than his pelvic pain.  It got to the point where he begged me to pray for him...of course I did...

Finally the nurse called and told me to take him to the emergency room.  It was most likely a Kidney stone. The ER confirmed this. He was not happy about that at all.  They admitted him Monday night and we settled into a room waiting for it to pass.  The last resort was a stent, which he didn't want.  We prayed for it to pass.  Tuesday came and it was still in pain...like writhing in pain so much that at one point I begged them to do something because he was pushing on the foot of the bed with his legs and I was afraid he would re-injure is pelvic bone.

Tuesday night he slept all night and finally the stone passed and we were able to go home.  Praise Jesus!!!

Aaron is going in on the 29th to remove the pins and then he can slowly start walking.  The surgeon said it would take a good month before he is back to normal.

Thanks to everyone for your continued prayers
