An important update

During the weekend, I fracture my shoulder.  I meant to catch the blog up and have been in so much pain since Saturday. I feel better today and have one more day of medical leave.

Update on Kelly's mother

Kelly Jo shared a special message yesterday about her mother. If you haven't check out our facebook page, we shared a message.

Kelly said this "I want to thank everyone for the MANY prayers for my mom. She traveled from NC to come to the graduation, but Sunday morning she fell and she fractured 2 of her lower vertebrae. She had surgery yesterday (a procedure called kyphoplasty where they put a cement material in the fractured places). She began therapy today, and has sat up 3 times for short periods. She still has a long, slow road to recovery, but this smile is huge progress since prior to this she has been in excessive pain! She is supposed to check out tomorrow for the long drive home if she can tolerate the car ride 😳 Prayers appreciated 🙏 "

Update on Kelly

Happy Saturday everyone! We have been getting a lot of questions about Kelly. Kelly ended up getting eye surgery to correct her eye vision. The surgery was a little more involved than what was expected. The family has said that they had a skilled doctor and Kelly is recovering well. Michaella came down from Chicago to help cook and take care of the kiddos at home.
