What a blessing we had--John's shoulder block worked all through the night. This enabled him to have a pain free night and get plenty of rest. Around 8:00 a.m. this morning he started to get some feeling back in his hand, arm, and shoulder. From then on it has been a struggle to stay ahead of the pain. He has been taking the pain meds as often as he can, but they don't seem to be helping very much. They also make him feel nauseated. We will wait to see how the rest of the evening and over night goes. If he still can't get some relief, I will give the doctor a call in the morning. Right now John's right arm is strapped to his side, so he can't do much of anything except lay down and try to rest. We watched a John Wayne movie marathon this afternoon in the hopes of getting his mind off of things.
Hopefully we are getting through the worst of this and things will look better tomorrow.
We have started this blog to keep family and friends updated with news and photos about our lives in both Minnesota and Texas. We hope you will check in often and enjoy sharing our experiences.
