Weaker

Amy has gotten a lot weaker the last two days.  This afternoon I had to have Ben help me carry her back up to her room after she half-heartedly played a game of Settlers of Catán with the rest of us.  She might have to stay home from church tonight, as the entryway is a series of stairs, mostly without handrails.  We could probably carry her in, but it would be a bit dangerous.  Most of the time her headaches have been tolerable, but they fluctuate from no headache to being bad enough she needs Oxycontin.  

Update (9:11pm) 

Amy did go to church tonight. She was able to get down the stairs okay, but Ben and I had to carry her out to the truck.  (There are advantages to having a teenage son who is into weightlifting!)  Here's a picture of the stairs.  You should have seen the pile of blocks we crawled down before we built the stairs a couple of years ago!
