a few months ago justin's navy friend, custer, nominated him for some kind of
special treat for a public figure award...people who help in the community.
the reward being a flight in an f-18 jet.
of course justin's name was drawn and he has an opportunity to fly.
however, he had to have an okay from the doctor.
if you know justin, you know he has blood pressure issues.
he freaks out everytime he goes in to the doctor.
today his first bp reading was 150/98.
then 125/110.
then 130/116.
his mom (who's a nurse) always says if he was a patient at work,
she'd tell him to get to the er.
they did blood work and an EKG.
nothing.
dr. hoppock thinks he's an adrenaline junkie.
has too much adrenaline.
he freaks out over situations he can't control...
like going to the dr.
so now he's on a beta blocker to see if that will lower his bp.
he'll have a re-check after we get back from vacation
and he'll tell him then if he can go flying or not.
this is a chance of a lifetime opportunity,
so we pray that he is healthy enough to get to do it!!
