Happy St. Patrick's Day!

by special request, "Wild Rover" for Scott

Hello friends,



I had quite the eventful day. As I told you yesterday I woke up in pain and just wasn't feeling too well. This morning I was in terrible back pain in my lower spinal area and none of the pain pills were even touching it, so Scott brought me to the ER. We were fearful that I might have a kidney issue, but after several X-Rays and an MRI, the only thing abnormal was a slipped disk (Thank God!) I am still in a lot of pain, but got some relief at the hospital with their high powered pain killers. I came home with two additional meds for pain and I just pray that will give me enough relief to sleep tonight.



On the really positive side, this was the first time in a long time that I was released home from the ER and not admitted to the hospital.



Hannah stayed home again today, but I do believe she is getting better, so that is wonderful!

With two sick girls, Daddy figured he may have to fill in for Irish Dancing, doesn't he look sweet in curls?

May the luck of the Irish be yours today! Love, Nancy

Love to all!
