Del's still falling for me!

Ann is typing this for me and she says I will get the hang of it and have fun blogging....so we'll see! It's been an eventful week starting with Del tripping on the back steps and falling on his face last Saturday night. Byron and I spent from 11pm Saturday night until 6 am Sunday morning in the emergency department while Del had a CAT scan of his face and head, stitches to his eyebrow and referrals to 3 more doctors. Ann came up Sunday night from Arizona and the week has been full with doctor appointments (and visiting). We had to make one more emergency trip to the ER on Thursday for another CAT scan due to Del having onset of pain above his eye and mild bulging of eye itself. (But we only had to spend 4 hours there that time!) Thankfully, Del is healing well with stitches removed and fractures of his right orbit healing...though he still is quite a striking shade of purple from eyebrow to jaw! We enjoyed having Byron and Shauna, Thiago and Caleb, Kyle and Angie, David, Karen and Nila come to see us yesterday and we had a good time!

A first for us!
