030524, Tuesday, Journal Entry

Vitals: Wt. 229.2

Journal Entry: Monday started out pretty well. Breakfast at Chuck-fil-A then 7500 + steps at University Place Mall. As we were walking out of the mall to get into our car, Cathy slipped on a patch of ice and fell hard. It was the kind of fall where you feel OK right away but everything gets worse as time goes by. And it did for Cathy. We went to see Beth and Karen and actually went to lunch with them at Guru's. Then we hurried home because Ron and Janet McDonald were coming for a visit. After sitting and visiting do over an hour, Cathy couldn't walk more than about two steps because her pain was so bad. Her left hip.

So we took her to the ER at American Fork hospital where xrays revealed no fractures or other issues.  So she is in a lot of pain and probably will continue to be for the rest of today. We should see improvement after that.

Come Follow Me 

2 Nephi 22:1 And in that day thou shalt say: O Lord, I will praise thee; though thou wast angry with me thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me.

2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid; for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also has become my salvation.

3 Therefore, with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

"I invite you to feel more joy in your life: joy in the knowledge that the Atonement of Jesus Christ is real; joy in the Savior’s ability, willingness, and desire to forgive; and joy in choosing to repent. Let us follow the instruction to “with joy … draw water out of the wells of salvation.” May we choose to repent, forsake our sins, and turn our hearts and wills around to follow our Savior."

Elder Dale G. Renlund Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostle, October 2016
