Me: Not the day we had planned. :-( First; Bob will mend. Here is what happened...
Bob crashed in South Mountain. Argh! Just he & I were biking down the road from the towers (no traffic) but when he stood up on the pedals his bike chain slipped & strangely got jammed around the crank. The bike stopped suddenly causing Bob to fly over the handlebars, summersault & land hard on his head & shoulder. It was scary & we knew right away his shoulder was messed up. Paramedics came & transferred him to Good Samaritan hospital.
A few hours & x-rays later he was released with a broken collar bone, separated shoulder and possible broken rib(s). No emergency surgery needed but a follow-up with an orthopedist in the next couple days is required. Bob is home now & very uncomfortable. Hoping the pain will improve quickly & full healing soon (expecting 6 weeks). This changes our plans to head to Lake Tahoe on Sunday. :-(
So sorry, honey. You will get better & we will overcome this obstacle! xoxo!!
Just reading how the accident happened makes my body ache....hope the pain is less with pain meds....praying for a speedy recovery!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karen! He is having a better day today. Big relief. He is breathing a lot better since the chest pain is less. He slept pretty well last night too. Phew. Feeling like he'll make a good recovery - just needs time.
