Carol's Accident

Sunday morning Carol came home and said I'm going to take the dog out for a ride.  Later that morning I heard her coming up the stairs crying. "That stupid dog". She said that Shadow was doing fine until he heard another dog barking in a house.  The dog jerked the leash and it sent Carol head over the handle bars of her bike.  She said she skidded across the sidewalk.  When she got home I saw that her head had a huge bump on her left eyebrow and her front teeth were chipped.  She had a bridge from a much earlier car accident.  Her right wrist was swelling up and I made the comment that it might be broken.  I told her I'd take her to the E.R. We got to the E.R. and she was in right away.  It actually seemed really fast and we didn't have to wait.  After her X-Ray the Doctor came back and said indeed you have a broken wrist and that we'll need to go to Bay Street Orthopedics to get a cast put on.  He put an a splint for her wrist and they cleaned up her wounds and we were out by 10:00AM.  She getting some sleep today and recovering. Looks like she'll have the next few days off. Which is nice because she's on vacation next weekend and we're going camping in Young State Park.
