Thank you, everyone, for all the prayers and thoughts. I would have posted an update sooner, but yesterday it was a problem with my internet provider and today Blogsome’s being stupid. So, hopefully, I won’t get to the end and then find out it won’t publish.
Matt was released from the hospital yesterday after passing a stress test and a couple of other tests for his heart. A cardiologist gave him a clean bill of health (heart-wise anyway). As for the other…..we still don’t really know. Nothing showed up in any of the tests. So, all they can tell us is that it was most likely a flare up of either diverticulitis or colitis (spelling?) that was bad enough to cause Matt pain, but not large enough to show up in the tests. He isn’t allowed to return to work until next week and must see the doctor again on Friday. After that appointment he’s going to come home for the weekend and let us baby him. I’m happy about that. Ashlei has done an impressive job of sticking by him the entire time, but when it comes down to it, she’s barely more than a kid and her mother isn’t exactly the reliable, responsible type.
So, that’s where we are. Thank you all, again. I appreciate you so much!
Well that is some good news. Hopefully he’ll continue to do well.
My sis has colitis, so if it turns out to be that, I can be a resource for ya. Take good care.
