Broken Rib
Daddy had started playing Friday basketball again at work but unfortunately got hurt in a game recently. He didn't want to take leave that day so waited until after work and went to urgent care where they told him he had a separated rib (don't get me started on why he wouldn't just leave work and see his regular doc). He was in a lot of pain but still went on travel the following week. He discovered that sleeping on a regular mattress instead of our fancy new mattress was much more comfortable, so he spent a few nights in the guest room. A week or so later he was still in a lot of pain and I urged him to see his regular doc. He did and it turns out it's a broken rib. Same recovery period and procedure as the prior diagnosis but more reassuring having had his regluar doc check him out. It's been a few weeks now and it's hard to get him to do less around the house but it is feeling a bit better and the pain comes and goes. I know he's hoping it's healed before the trip to Maine so he can play a round of golf...we'll see!
