Yesterday Chris had an MRI done for the first time. He has been having some problems with his back where his leg will go numb when he stands up or several other everyday movements. So our great friend Brian who is a "Clinical Support" member (that is what his name tag says... he's official) at Orthocarolina got Chris an appointment with a doctor there. Chris decided that he might freak out when put into the MRI machine so the doctor gave him a prescription for 2 Valium to relax him a little. Well Chris took the 2 Valium and he said that he remembers going into the machine and coming out but nothing in between! PRAISE THE LORD! I just envisioned him going crazy throwing the panic button at the nurse and banging on the machine to be let out because of course he couldn't drive himself! But never the less he made it through and he was so sweet when we left there...
Luckily he doesn't read our blog that often so I can tell you this... When he was little if he did well at the doctor his mom promised him that he could go for a milkshake. So when we get in car he said "I think I need a milkshake" and I responded "A milkshake, you never want anything sweet really", then he proceeded to tell me about what his mom used to do... I thought that was so sweet... Chris truly is an elephant because he doesn't forget anything!! So needless to say he got a strawberry milkshake and I got a chocolate one from the Christian Chicken!! Thanks Chick-fil-a for making my sweet husband's day!!

Well, yay. I am glad that it worked out...and much better than you planned!! =)
Mmmm milkshakes!! Very nice.
Continue that tradition with your little ones. What a fun tradition!!
Only wussy's need 2 Valium for MRIs--just kidding! Glad I could help.
Wish you would have told me about the milkshake part, though. This "Clinical Support" person could have used one.
You are funny! I am glad that it went well. Hopefully you can find out what is going on and get it taken care of.
That is neat though about the milkshake. It shows you how the little things are the things we remember.
