Update on Skip and news

This morning we headed in to Greenville as Papa was missing Molly something terrible. She was still asleep at 9 a.m and Mommy said, "she needed to get up anyways". So we had some fun time with our girl.
We finally had the chance to sit down with Skip and talk about the results from the series of tests on his back. They have found that on the L-4 the nerves are "pinched" and that is what is causing all this horrible pain. So now we wait until he sees this very popular Doctor in October. Our family doctor told him that his wife had similar surgery two years ago and has had 100% recovery. That was the most positive news we had heard thus far. So for now he will stay on his powerful pain med's and wait it out. In the meantime from his physical therapy we have seen some real mobility with him.
Katie and Jessalyn came over this afternoon after their yardsale and we had the biggest kick out of Jessalyn. She wanted to show Nana her wallet and she went on to tell me she had 2 George Washington money and 1 Abraham Lincoln money!! That is how she counts her money!! Figure your math by those presidents and that is $7.00!! Well I went and got my wallet and gave her another GW money which made $8.00 and told her I would give her 5 GW money for her 1 AL...she was so excited as she counted out her 8 GW money!! She says, "Nana I can now go to the Dollar Store"!!
