Admitted

Jeff was having a really hard time breathing.  It seemed to be getting worse and after a blessing and talking to the doctor we headed to the emergency room.  There are a few things that could be causing the shallow, painful breaths.  He could have a blood clot in his lung or pneumonia.  After doing a CT scan it didn't show either of those 2 options.  Instead of sending Jeff home, they decided it was better to admit him because his blood counts (white blood cells, etc) were really low.  It was a long night that turned into a long day.  At least he was transferred to his own room where he could sleep well.  



All set up

I was able to come and hang out for most of the day while the kids hung out at the cousins house and did school work.  It was a blessing that Tiffany was willing to deal with our kids so Jeff didn't have to sit in the hospital all alone.  He was exhausted though, and he spent most of his time sleeping!
There were several people that did come by and visit Jeff... Brother Starkweather, Brother Ghormley, Monica Johnson (who also got to be his nurse on Wednesday) and Bishop.

Jeff did start feeling better and started having fun playing with the white board.  Plotting his escape and all!
