Please pray * Updated

My father-in-law was just taken to hospital via ambulance. He was using his snowblower to remove the snow on his driveway. He started to have chest pains and experience shortness of breath.

We're on our way to see him right now, but it will take an hour to get there.

Please say a prayer for him and for us. The roads haven't all been cleared and the rental from the accident isn't the best!

2011 you suck.

Update: So my FIL has a collapsed right lung. The doctors tried to coax it into re-inflating (I left the room 'cos I'm squeamish around anything that has to do with blood), but it didn't. The doctors put a tube into his ribcage and now he has to stay in the hospital for 48 to 72 hours.

I'm so relieved.

The drive down to see him was horrible. It seemed like we drove into every snowstorm possible. Lucky for us when we got off the highway the snow stopped and we had clear skies right to the hospital.

I'm back at my FIL's house because I was starving and there was no fast food that I could eat close to the hospital (it's just after 7pm and I haven't eaten anything since 10am). Mr. JB headed back to see if they were finally going to get my FIL into a room.

Thank you so much for your prayers. I was trying really hard to hold it together for Mr. JB's sake. My husband was so calm because he figured that it was his lung again. 

Btw, yesterday was my bloggoversary. We went out to dinner at my favourite raw restaurant, but I was too tired to post when we got home. I can't believe that I've been blogging since 2008! I promise a more reflective post when I get something in my belly!
