I haven’t posted for a month because of certain circumstances. We went to Salt Lake City, Utah a couple of days before Father’s day. We brought my niece Rose home to help out with swim lessons for the next two weeks. That night when we got home I took Isaac upstairs to his room to sleep. I went to bed and when he cried I went up stairs to get him. I had been asleep so I was coming down the stairs tired, and I slipped and landed on the edge of the stairs. I had protected the baby so I couldn’t brace myself.  I knew at that moment I had broke something. I called for Eric but he couldn’t hear me. Luckily, Rose heard me. I needed help with the baby and she ran and got Eric he helped me down the stairs and to my room. I laid in bed for about 30 mins in pain and it wouldn’t go away. Eric had to work at 5 am and I he couldn’t take any time off. So I text my friend Kim and she took me to the ER. She was such an awesome help.  I found out that I had fractured  one of my lumbar transverse process. Then in a follow up visit a couple of days later the specialist said that I actually fractured 3 possibly 4 of my lumbar transverse process. Results 4 to 6 weeks healing.  I was so blessed to have Rose here and my mother showed up a couple of days after the accident. It has been 3 weeks since the accident and I still can’t drive. My mom is still helping out but I am improving. I am glad that it happened during the summer time and not the school year.  We had family and friends for the 4^th of july it was a really fun time.
