The follow up visit with an eye, ear, throat, nose specialist didn't offer a clear diagnose. Some theories are: a virus that has to run it's course, meniere's disease, vertigo. We just need to watch it over time and he goes back in 3 months.

Jay's trip to the hospital
Thursday, the day of President Hinckley's viewing all the nurses from the Church office building were at the Conference center due to the large crowds coming to the viewing. When Jay felt dizzy and made his way to the nurses station, no one was there to help. Upon seeing the immediate need for some medical attention someone was called over. After an examination, and the fact that the dizziness and nausiousness wouldn't stop, a call to 911 was placed. An ambulance came and took him to the LDS hospital emergency room. The last time Jay was admitted to a hospital was when he had his tonsils out when he was 8 years old. He's a pretty healthy guy considering that he eats broccoli and squash for breakfast! After 3 hours of taking test, waiting for the results he was released to go home with a prescription for the dizziness and a suggestion to see his local physician. The cat scan and MRI came out clean. No tumors or strokes. On the way home I asked if they used the siren to transport him and he said, "No." We both thought of Amber driving the ambulance in Dutch John.

It was scary for all of us to hear Dad was in the hospital. We are so thankful it wasn't anything too serious. However, you are in our thoughts and prayers as the diagnosis process continues. We love you.
Glad to hear Uncle Jay is going to be ok!
Oh boy. I am so glad to hear that Jay is doing better and that there is no bad news to report! It's so fun to see how Lisa and Tyler have become adults. Glad that Tyler is doing good on his mission. I can't believe that little Bradley is driving! It seems like he was filling up your car with hose water just the other day.
