Motocross Injury

Brett decided he wanted to get back into racing motocross in June.  Soon after his 30th birthday he bought a used bike....unfortunatly he learned the hard way that our bodies cannot handle what they could when we were in our late teens and early twenties.

His fourth or fifth time out on the bike, Brett had a hard landing and shattered his wrist and broke his foot. He did not crash, his injuries were simply from impact.

I just wanted to share a few comments regarding this situation:

1.  I don't know what people without health insurance do.
2.  Netflix (instant) has been a total life safer!
3.  We are thankful to have a ranch-style home.
4.  According to Brett, eggnog is the best laxative ever.

Here are a few pictures to share.

Brett's wrist post surgery.  Two metal plates and a number of screws.  I wonder if he will set off the metal detectors going through security?

This was Brett's doctors visit 10 days after his wrist surgery.  His wrist is healing great...however this is when we were informed that his foot would also need surgery. 

Awww.  Arn't they so cute?  So now, he is on the mend and before long we will be HAWAII bound!
