The Worst Week EVAR

Tuesday night Nate wrecked his car on the freeway- most likely totalled. Got that call no one wants at 1 a.m. Luckily he is fine! He is ok.
Thursday I get his call at 11:30 that his heart was "fluttering" again. Oh great. He has no car, and I am in Ogden. So I leave work and drive home, check Madison out of school, pick up Nate and Brylie and drop the girls off at my sisters ( again! thanks so much Trisha) and head back to the hospital. We get there and they're pretty skeptical and acting like Nate doesn't know what he's talking about...until they hooked him up and saw that he actually WAS in Atrial Fibulation. The doctor wants to admit him and keep him overnight to see if his heart would convert back to a normal rhythm on it's own, and if it didn't they would do the Cardioversion (shock to the heart) tomorrow. Well Nate is a bit sensitive and emotional and did not at all want to stay at the hospital. As they were getting his room ready--his heart converted back to a normal rhythm and all was well. They put him on a new drug and hopefully this will work. On our way home we stopped in Brigham City to get the rental car at the place the insurance set up for us, only it didn't exist. So we went somewhere else, only to find out they were all out. So we drove back to Ogden. Finally got the rental and drove home. THEN my car overheated on the way home. I thought we'd never get home. But here we are safe and sound!
