The good news is that Clark seems to be recovering well from his fall. He has a lot of pain in his hip when he tries to walk, but X-Rays show no hip or pelvic fractures.
The bad news is that doctors discovered that Clark's heart is enlarged and not functioning efficiently. They've started him on meds to manage the problem and will keep him one more day in the hospital to make sure the meds work as intended. They've also told Clark that he needs to slow down and work less hours. Those of you who know Clark know that 14 - 16 hour days are not uncommon for Clark, and that he never gets enough rest. Trying to get him to work only 8 hours a day will be like trying to get a three pack-a-day smoker to cut back to half a pack. It's not going to be easy for him.
How many of us would be glad for a doctor's prescription for more rest and less work? Let's hope that Clark takes his 'medicine' like a man.
