Seth and Eli were scheduled to leave today from Richmond for their return to Iraq. We watched Seth walk down the runway and take off for Atlanta. The last we heard from Eli he was laying on the couch in Gibbsonville watching the football game. As Eli and Katy left home to meet us in Richmond, Eli was stricken with severe pains in his side. He had been having these pains throughout the week and this morning they hit with a vengeance. Katy and Eli took a detour to the hospital where a diagnosis of one large kidney stone was made. Eli was given pain medication and sent home with instructions to drink a lot of fluids in order to try and pass the stone. He's been given a reprieve and will be home for at least another week as he learns the meaning of intense pain. Stay tuned for more of the story.
Seth arrived in Atlanta to find that he will be spending the night there. He was given a voucher for a hotel and meal and told to report back to the airport tomorrow at noon to see what transportation can be arranged. He's not too terribly upset as this means he can watch the NFL playoff games today.....of course, he could have just stayed home another day and watched them in the comfort of his own house.
