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!!

We are wishing you more than luck...we are hoping for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery...which will be months no doubt. Wish we could be there with you, love you both, mom & dad hansen

Hugs and kisses to both of you
What a bummer! At least Loren was doing something cool in the process. Heal up quick, listen to those physical therapists!
