Ron

I got a call from our daughter-in-law Kim telling me to find someone for Kristi and get to the hospital that Ron fell off the roof. Actually he fell from the endwall of a building 16'. He ended up breaking both the bones in his wrist. He went into surgery for both bones being broke and dislocated. The smaller bone was an open fracture. It took a plate and nine screws to fix the larger of the breaks. The fall happened around 9 in the morning and we made it home about 5:30 in the evening.
I think this will be a rough process for him as he won't be able to stay down and recover like most of us will. To see Ron I have to say we were very thankful as he was pretty banged up on his face. His back and chest hurt pretty bad too. But they asured us that everything else was okay. The only xray's taken were of his chest and arm.
Galen called Kim to take him from the scene and she transported him to the hospital in her car. Kim is our family EMT. We are thankful to have one in the family.
