Feeling Chillin'

another report on my son

I spoke with my daughter-in-law a few minutes ago.  Jim is doing OK so far.  I would try to describe what went on with his broken leg, but it's all over my head and pretty complicated.

They're at the stage now where they got Jim off morphine and onto something else.  Well, the first drug they tried made him sick.  The one he's on now puts him to sleep.  But this is something everyone has to go through, I guess, if they're in pain.

He sat up today in a chair (but was not comfortable!).

Typical male ( just like his dad), he won't call the nurses when he needs assistance.  Sheesh.

When you are praying, be sure and remember Jim's wife, who has to go to work tomorrow, and feels guilty for leaving him and going home tonight.  We wives all know the feeling, don't we?

The doctor said they're on guard for pneumonia, since Jim's a smoker.

So far, so good.

    I enjoyed scrolling down your journal to read about your country life.  I also went to your son's and daughter's journals and your other one.  I just wanted to try to get better acquainted with such a journaling family.  I do hope your son's broken leg heals well.  Looks like a nasty break, and oh that stuck in the mud truck!  That was real mud. Reminds me of our giant slew.  Gerry  http://journals.aol.com/gehi6/daughters-of-the-shadow-men/

    It sounds like Jim is coming along....I'll be praying for his wife.  I know how that is...she will have a miserable day I'm sure.  Bless her heart.  You guys have my continued prayers.      Hollie
