Nothing yet to report

well our paperwork has been over for 4 months and 6 days now but who's counting right. the waiting hasn't been too bad yet. After all we have been a little bit pre-occupied with John breaking his hip in early May. For those of you who haven't heard, John was washing the cars in the driveway on May 10 and slipped and more or less did a spilt. Once he was able to breath again from the fall he yelled for me to come outside. Luckily we had the windows open that day and i was able to hear him. After getting him up (sort of) and in the car on to the ER we went. We arrived at approx 3:00 around 6:30 after he had had x-rays and a cat scan to see what the damage was the doctor asked him when his last meal was. NEVER a good sign when you are in the ER, we knew immediately what that meant, Surgery. Turns out when he fell he pop his left hip out of of socket and broke the femoral head. He finally went into surgery around 11:00 pm and got out around 12:30. Hip back in place and 3 pins to hold it together he finally was in a hospital room around 2:30. So obviously not your average 39 year old breaks their hip like that. He had been having problem with his hip are for about a month, his doctor was treating it for soft tissue damage. What the doctors have concluded is that he actually had a small stress fracture probably from running on treadmill at the gym and when he fell the bone was so weak that it pulled out and broke.

John has been home ever since. Its been just over 9 weeks now and he, to say the least is going a bit stir crazy. He can't work until he is 100% weight bearing on his leg. He started PT 2 weeks ago and it is going well. We saw the doctor today and he wants to keep him out 2 more weeks, so our next appointment is July 29. It looks like he'll be out 12 weeks total.

So with all this going on we have been pretty pre-occupied. Which isn't so much of a bad thing when the time has gone by so quickly.

Hopefully the wait wont be too much longer. They expected 6 months so that could mean we are only 2.75 months away now. That's nothing. I think the hardest part is going to be after we get the referral and we have to wait to travel to go get the baby.
