Just a note to tell you how much we love you and how sorry we are your neck is hurting you. It brings tears to my eyes to see how much pain you are in and I wish I could just take your pain away. Please get back to being the sweet, loving, happy Sam you are!
Love Mommy and Daddy
Poor little Sam woke up Friday night screaming in pain from his, back, neck and shoulders. We think he just slept funny and woke up in terrible pain from stiff muscles. He wasn't doing any better by Sunday even with Motrin, heat pack, massage, and warm showers so Jake took him to the ER (for some odd reason urgent care is not open here in Vernal on Sundays) They recommend doing a CT because in some cases neck injuries are not seen on x-ray. CT scan looked great so it is probably just a really bad case of stiff muscles. They sent him home with a neck brace which hurts him because it keeps his neck more straight but it will hopefully help him to be able to relax and hold his neck more upright. Poor boy has been walking around so slowly and crooked with his back turned to one side and his head and neck to the other side since Saturday. Every time you touch him or if he thinks you are going to touch him he screams in pain. The hospital recommend we talk to a spinal surgeon who comes to town on Wednesday just to be safe. Most likely he will be just fine and hopefully in a couple days should be back to his normal self.

Sam, our first born grandchild.....how we love you!
Sometimes mortality isn't fun and definitely it isn't fair but all things are necessary as this life is the next step in the Plan of Salvation. We need to learn things in order to get back to our Father in Heaven and Jesus.
Hang in there.......you are loved!
Love Grandpa and Grandma J.
