Too much had gone on since I last wrote.
The main thing was that my dad was in the hospital for about a week and a half. He was having some really bad bleeding (from his crohns). And got taken to the hospital last Saturday (8/18). He was there til Wednesday. He still wasn't feeling well, but was released anyway. Thursday, he fell, or possibly passed out (once again, blood loss). He called his friend to take him back to the hospital, but by the time the friend arrived, he looked really bad, so they called 911, and he rode in the ambulance to the ER. He has an MRI on top on other things, and they discovered a compression fracture in T-9. Possibly from the fall, or the long term use of prednisone. He got out yesterday. I brought him some soups today, since that was all he could think that he wanted. He doesn't feel like eating. But he does seem better. Less grouchy.
My crohns has been acting up too. I started prednisone, against my better judgement. It seems to be helping, and I'm not having the severity of side effects from before.
People keep walking past the house, and Fiona is going crazy.
Monday was Aaron's birthday. We didn't do much except have dinner with Aaron's folks.
Yesterday night we went to our first Dog Scouts meeting. It was pretty fun. I think it'll be good to having the dogs making friends. And us too.
Work has been going well. I've still been doing a lot of overtime. They hired a new girl for front desk. She seems good, very professional.
Aaron's cousin had her baby today. She was supposed to be induced on 8/26, but they didn't start til 8/27, and they she wasn't dilating. Even after two rounds of pitocin, she was still under 5cm. So she had to have a c-section.
