Start to the New Year!

A little late on posting but as they say: Better late then never! So, Our home teacher signed Shawn up for our Stake Basketball for our church, funny thing- our home teacher didn't go... Silly boy! Anyway, Shawn decided he'd better go since he was signed up. Me and my niece went somewhere and we came back home and Shawn's car was home and he was sitting on the porch.. I thought to myself their are 2 things it could be; 

1.) Injury

2.) Car problems

Ash my niece then said that Shawn had a phone book in his hands- Great I thought to myself, can we really handle one more thing right now!!! NO joke- It really does feel like one thing after another! So, I walked up the steps to our porch and he asked me what the number was to Urgent care and showed me his ankle- it was SO swollen.. It was seriously HUGE- ICK!! I said I would call. I was so mad because we have no health insurance and were not the jackpot of all jackpots right now. So, I took him up to Urgent Care.. It was frustrating because Shawn forgot his wallet with his photo id, so I had to go all the way back home and go all the way back to Urgent Care.. I thought that it was funny because they took my money but wouldn't take my word. Weird! But I also understand. 

So, I got back and Shawn was back in a room.. I went back where he was and he was sitting in a wheelchair.. Then the nurse came in and took him to get an x-ray. He came back and we waited for the Dr. Just hoping it would not be broken, that leads to more tests which leads to more money. I am SO frustrated with the situation we've been put in by individuals... Whatever, I had to vent that out for a second and now to get back on track. 

So, the Dr. came back in and said it was a terrible sprane- it would take about 6 weeks to heal; my heart sunk because that put some things on hold for Shawn! But, I try to continue to have Faith! I really am Thankful for what I have, it's such a hard time right now and I am not going to sit and sugar coat how wonderful all is. But I am Thankful for prayer and that I can kneel to my Father in Heaven and be at his mercy. 

As for Shawn, I really hope he can recover from this on Sunday our AWESOME home teacher came over and gave him a blessing, we have been SO blessed with a wonderful home teacher and the blessing was beautiful. Thanks Jeff. Here's to Shawn's recovery!!! Sorry babe your hurt I know how frustrating this is for you.
