At the ER

Sawyer's level of discomfort did not ease by late afternoon yesterday so Laurie call our general practitioner who examined Sawyer and made arrangements for Sawyer to go to the Strong ER for tests and x-rays. The blood showed that most of his levels were in the normal range and the x-rays indicated that there was not a blockage - this was good news. Much to Sawyer's chagrin, he was told that he would have to wait for his body to do its work. This resulted in another sleepless night without much progress. This morning he did go for a long walk through the sprawling halls and is now finally getting some sleep. We are waiting for the doctors to make their rounds in order to find out what happens next.
