A Little Update

Well, Scott must be feeling a little better...stubborn enough to complain about his roommate. He now has a private room! I didn't get to talk to Janell, but Scott's grandma Cathy shared a little bit of info with me and I'm sharing with all of you.
It doesn't sound like they have done anything in regards to his back yet. Scott keeps tellng everyone to "Ssshhhh" about it...like they are going to forget! The doctors are giving him blood thinners (shots in the stomach) because of his limited mobility. They don't want to have to deal with any blood clots. As you can all imagine, our friend Scott is not very happy about this at all! None the less, the doctors are winning and he keeps getting the shots.
Janell and Chelsea are still at his bedside. I'm sure they are anxiously awaiting progress reports so they can determine when Scott will be able to come HOME!
Scott..although you already know this, you have tons of friends here in Rifle that wish they could be there with you right now. Lots of the kids would like to take off on a trek to Salt Lake alone, and that is a little more difficult for everyone here, because you are so far away. Please know, that just because you don't have a waiting room full of friends there, doesn't mean that you don't have a room full here. The number of calls that I have recieved in regards to your health and the tiniest bit of any information has been amazing. The parent's here are concerned with the kids taking off on a trip and being in an accident themselves. The weather here over the weekend wasn't real super. So PLEASE remember that we are with you in spirit and in your heart...just not in the waiting room.
I will post again after hearing from Janell today....
