Adam had a soccer game on Friday night. The game was almost over and he collided with a player from the other team. He got elbowed in the ribs. He kept playing and about 5 minutes later he collapsed. He was in a ton of pain and couldn't breathe. He thought he had broken some ribs. We loaded up the kids and raced to the ER. I had never seen Adam in that much pain and he couldn't breathe. I was really, really scared. We got to the ER and they took x-rays they couldn't see an broken ribs but his LUNG had COLLAPSED. Some of our good friends came and took the boys. A couple of our other friends came to the hospital and gave Adam a blessing. The doctor had to operate. They cut a hole in Adam's chest and inserted a chest tube to inflate his lung. They couldn't anesthetize so he was awake for the whole thing. It was really painful for him. He could hear the cracking and popping of the muscles and cartilage as they pushed the tube into his lung. He was then admitted into the hospital. It was a long night and Adam was in a lot of pain. He is home now and resting. We are so, so grateful that he is home with his us now. Thank you so much for all the prayers and phone calls. We are so thankful for our friends and family.
