DON'T EVER, EVER let this happen to you...

What you are about to see is not intended for the weak of mind or heart...You are about to take a journey into sights too horrible to conceive or visualize. This is not a figment of your imagation and do not attempt to adjust your screen...tee hee. [read this in your Rod Sterling voice]

Actually, this mess is looking alot better. You can just refer to me as THE EIGHT THOUSAND DOLLAR WOMAN! [who can't walk and can barely crawl] For this price I was hoping to be somewhat bionic...sheeze!












Instead of collecting tattoos, I collect scars!


I must admit, I wasn't prepared for how large the cut is. I was just talking with Giz and she admits to how worried they were because of my reaction when I broke it. Don won't believe how CALM I was. [yes. really]I've had so many accidents I guess I'm getting used to it. But... I will admit to crying when the doc took the dressing off to remove the stitches and I saw it for the time. I am now the proud owner of a steel plate and six screws. [ At least the steel plate isn't in my head...difficult to tell though! hee hee] Anywho...if this EVER happens again, I will use a word that sounds like duck and then I will feel even MORE like a schmuck. Actually, just shoot me. I would prefer it.
A very heartfelt and grateful thank you to my most beautiful and handsome family. Your support in love, prayers, priesthood blessings, balloons, get well cards, visits, and poems will never be forgotten or go unrecongized. Thank you ALL for coming to my rescue.
I LOVEADORE you.

Just, okay, wait...I'm feeling queezy all over! Oh man. There really aren't words for how awful your poor leg looks Mom. Just wow. Oh man. You poor thing. Tell me, is that a yellow stocking you are wearing or is that truly a bruise that goes all the way up to your knee?! Holy cow! What in the...I just feel for you. I wish there was more we could do. You are in our prayers! Thanks for sharing! It is worse than I was picturing...I hope you are getting better fast! Love you lots!

Yeah, um just wow is the word. I can't believe just how much bruising there was! Tell me is yellow your signature color now? tee hee. Man, it shocked me to see just how bad it was so I can't imagine what you must've felt seeing it yourself. Hang in there mom! You're doing great! And just remember laughter truly is the best medicine!

P.S. Thanks again for letting us store all our stuff at your house too. We really appreciate it!
