Recovery Update

Loren was feelin pretty good before he headed into surgery, also was quite stylish in his gown and cap!!

All snuggled up in his heated blankets

Believe it or not this is before the morphine

In the waiting room just after we checked in...many hours still to go at this point, luckily I brought a thick book to read.

Getting ready to head to the hospital.

BMX Bike Racing

Soooo...Monday night Loren tried bmx biking with a friend of ours who races BMX bikes on a dirt track here in Bakersfield. The picture isn't of the track where Loren was but it's similar. He went around the track a few times...a few practice laps starting out of the starting gate, hit the first tabletop on the 3rd lap and landed fine but on the 2nd tabletop he came down with his front tire crooked...he fell pretty hard and broke his arm (right wrist). So we spent Monday night at the urgent care and then he had his appointment with an orthopedic surgeon Tuesday and today we are going to the hospital where he will have surgery!! I guess he broke his radius the opposite way from what it normally or usually does...so if left to heal the muscle attached would pull the bone down and away from where it needs to be placed so they are inserting a steel plate in his arm today...fun stuff!! So off we go...wish us luck!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY CARTER!!!
