I just wanted to let everyone know that Katie is better (she was only sick for about 3 days –thank goodness) and no one else has gotten sick. Yeah!!
Last Thursday, Chris and some other Boy Scout leaders (Chris is scoutmaster) took five boys to Zion National Park for two and a half days. Chris did well. It’s Ryan that we are worried about now. He and the other boys were playing in and around the pool. Rye decided to “slide” into the pool jaw first (he hit the right side of his face on the edge of the pool). The leaders that saw it ran to the side of the pool to see if he was going to come up. The leaders said it made them physically sick to watch it happen. Rye came up bloody and in alot of pain. Monday, I took him to the orthodontist and they did an x-ray on him. The orthodontist couldn't tell if his jaw was broken because it was so swollen. Rye can hardly open his mouth. The orthodontist had to leave a broken bracket in his mouth because Rye couldn’t get his mouth open wide enough for him to fix it. I will take him back on Thursday if he can open his mouth wider. I guess it was time for him to get hurt. Just about every six months he gets hurt. Stitches in his face in December, head trauma May of last year and an emergency surgery to remove his appendix in Feb- Ahhh he keeps our lives exciting!
Wednesday, Chris will have his second chemo therapy treatment.
Thanks for all your support and love. Love, Ricki
