life seems to still be a bit crazy

OH my....yes the Iowa soap opera does cont....Tues night (well all day tues)Jeff didn't feel really well...he had been sick for 3 or 4 days when we returned from Texas and then got better for a couple of days then he started feeling the same way again... Jeff went to the ER....we thought it was gallstones considering the pain he was in and symptoms...however after many many tests we finally found out today (Thursday)...that jeff not only has a hiatal hernia which we knew but a fixed one that was from birth...between the two there is a fatty tissue had pushed up thru them and had fluid around that making it about the size of a tennis ball in the center of his chest...he had been lifting too heavy of things in texas....and guessing this made it irritated...and it then stuck and the pain began...and there is more yada yada but the base is...if he gets more active and loses some weight as he is... since the sleep apnea was diagnosed....he should be fine...no promises since they had never seen anything like this before...if not then they will need to do surgery...sooooooo for now he is home...we are happy and gonna get back to life...awww life is so much fun around here teehee but we are so glad he is home and i'm so glad to sleep in my bed since i slept on a cot at the hospital til they figured it out...it was so scary as they keep saying noper not this....noper not that...however on a good note his lungs, liver, pancreas, spleen, heart and stomach are in great shape teehee maybe the creative bug will bite me and I can get back to creating...
