    Well, I got home about an hour ago. Mom ended up breaking her ankle on the right side, so she can't drive and is spending the night at the hospital. I'm still trying to find out when Dad can see a hand surgeon. I am amazed at how many people have offered to do whatever they can for my family, and I am truly thankful to God for all the support. Thanks!

    Talk about a bad day... It can only get better from here. Sorry about your parents troubles. I hope your mom's ankle heals quickly and your dad is back working on restoring his "new" car real soon.

    Again, thanks everyone! I was able to squeeze in a little time early this morning to get my new tires and rims put on, and I'll post some pictures when I catch a breath. Heading up to the hospital to be with mom, but both of my parents are doing a little better already :)

    I spent most of today at Memorial Hospital. They are keeping my mom overnight again to run more tests as to why she passed out... I thought it was because of pain?? Oh, and evidently she tore or pulled some ligaments, but it's not broken. I'm not really sure what is better or worse, but they both suck.

    Luckily, the doctor that is assigned to my mom is also a hand surgeon, so my dad might be getting it "cut and tucked" tomorrow. He's on some meds that make him say some hilarious stuff, so it's been a better day. Again, thanks everyone!

    I woke up today to my dad saying that we had to go help my sister because she got in a car accident. She pretty much totaled the car, but walked away with a sprained shoulder. God is really throwing a lot at my family, though I hold on to the promise that He will never put you into a situation that is too much for you to handle.

    I feel like I'm living in a final destination movie right now!
