Ribs and things

Greetings! Some bad news and some good news.....Chuck bought a small motorcyle a couple of weeks ago. Ten days ago, he took it out on a gravel road and wiped out in a pothole. The bike was OK but he was pretty scraped up, bruised and swollen. Of course I wanted him to go get checked out, but he kept saying he was fine.
This morning, however, he says he felt the rib move around - up until now, he figures the swelling held it in place. He went to Emergency at the hospital to get his ribs x-rayed. He has a broken 7th rib - and of course there is not much to do but restrict movement, and not do anything that makes it hurt!

Sigh. So this afternoon we phoned a handyman to come help us out with some garden work and hauling.....

In keeping with instructions from various offspring and family members, I am letting you all know about this!
