Colin is home!

Colin came home yesterday from a 2 week stay at the hospital. It was stressful for all of us and we are just glad to be through it, with Colin feeling and breathing better! He was having some headaches while there and his dr. thought he should get a CT scan of his airway to see if there was any blockages, like a nasal polyp of something. The results came back showing nothing but Colin decided to capitalize on this CT scan as a prank for April fools day.
So on Wed (April 1st) Colin called me and told me that Dr. Liou was really worried about the CT scan. When I got to the hospital later the nurse walked in with a note and said to Colin "the dr was just wondering which day would be better for you to have the surgery". I was like what surgery and was really concerned. The nurse left the room and Colin (he really should rethink his career and go in to acting) started freaking out because he didn't want to go for surgery etc. Well I was really stressed out myself and wasn't sure if I could deal with surgery. I started thinking how I need to get work off, what I was going to do with the dog etc. Then moments later while heading to my night shift, the nurses all told me "April Fools"! I was confused but then realized there was no surgery! Thank goodness! Colin got me good this year, infact its his best ever prank on me! Having the nurses involved was very convincing! Now I just need ideas for next year to get him back!
Thank you to everyone for your support, prayers, visits, Tari and Mind for playing Bonanza with us and for everyone who took care of Jonas these past 2 weeks (Beth/Brian, Spencer, Kacy, Melissa, my dad). Next time Colin goes in we might have a little one and we'll need even more help! Thanks again!
