If you know Ryan, you know that he doesn't sit still for very long!  He's realizing he has to take it a little bit easier, though, after suffering some horrible headaches and the inability to turn his head.  Thankfully,  a trip to the E.R. just showed some inflammation at his incision site and doctor's orders to slow down and get more rest!  They gave him some I.V. steroids and anti-inflammatory meds and he's feeling much better.  So if you see him, tell him to "Take it easy"!!!!

 
OUCH!!!
