All is Well that Ends Well

Ryan had his shoulder surgery. I was prepared for a boy who would be in pain and really grumpy about having to lay around. He has been a real trooper. No complaints even though I know he is in a lot of pain. Especially since he was still hurting from having his wisdom teeth out. He is in a brace 24-7. He can only wear button up shirts. Shawn and Stina brought some for him when they came last weekend. He only had one that wasn't long sleeved prior to this.

I am going to go with Kristi this coming week to a training in Salt Lake so that I can tend Dalley for her and she can be with him in the evenings. I am going to have fun.

Tomorrow it will Start.

Tomorrow starts a series of things to help get Ryan prepared for his mission.
Tomorrow he will have his wisdom teeth out. He has three. He will be going to an oral surgeon to have it done. Then on Tuesday he has his shoulder operated on. I don't have a clue yet how he will handle all of this. He usually isn't a good patient. Maybe the teeth will be a piece of cake, but maybe not. Maybe the surgery will heal quickly. That is my hopoe and prayer. Then we need to get him back in to test his eyes. By the time all of that is done, then he should be able to get his papers ready to submit. Then the countdown will begin.
