I stole Joshua's THUNDER...

So, we are on Day 2 of 3...
...of what...
...Well it's called a "MUA" and basically, to put it in my language and where its easy to understand...Some Doctors knock you out and stretch you like a rubber band...
...and well, thats whats being done to Josh right now!
Yep, he's being stretched like a rubber band!
You see, Josh's tendons are WAY to tight and it prevents him from bending like a normal person or from running like a normal kid.  They pull and tug and cause him a lot of pain...But we all know, Josh isn't normal so I guess its ok!
He seems to be doing ok with it.  Each morning we go and they knock him out and then the do whatever it is that needs to be done...One problem on the first day when they tried to put the IV in they had a hard time so he got stabbed 3 times.  Once in each hand and then finally in his arm.  Poor kid, maybe next time he'll listen to me when I tell him to drink more!  So because they had such a hard time with the IV they are keeping his IV in his arm...it really bugs him so after tomorrow he'll get it taken out, which should make him a happy camper.
BUT...
You all know me...I can't let it all be about Josh...I mean REALLY!!
So Friday...Day 1...
I got up at 5:30 to get ready when...oh wait let me back up a day...Thursday I was sick all day running a low grade fever and having a really bad head cold, I even took Drugs before going to bed and I HATE taking meds...so now back to Friday...
So I'm getting up to get ready when I started to feel light headed...yep those of you who know me, well you guessed it...I passed out-
WAIT, not just once but TWICE!!  See I had a head cold and I just wasn't doing well. 
DJ was suppose to go to drill that morning, but plans where changed and he ended up taking Josh for his first treatment...He was afraid I would pass out while driving him.  So he took him while I tried to get back to normal...well what I would call normal!
After Josh was done, DJ headed out of town for guard.  He really didn't want to leave us but he had too! 
So I couldn't just let it be all about Josh.  I need to be the one who is front and center as always!  UGH!
