On Tuesday Mark decided he was going to go ride his dirt bike with his friend Rob, out at Washington Dam Road. He was about ten min. into his ride when he decided that he was going to jump this jump, well needless to say he didn't quite make the jump. He ended up going to the ER.
He arrived at the ER at about 6:40 PM and had to have some X-Rays done, he knew he had broken something but was not sure how bad it was. Just take a look at this X-ray and you will see just how bad it really really was :(.
Mark, had to have surgery on his elbow at 11:30 PM. While waiting in the waiting room there was not a sole in sight. Lets just say I was a little worried since that is all there was to do. At about 1:00 Am I finally picked up the phone to the surgical room and asked if he was out of surgery yet? They said we have just finished and the Doctor should be up there in a few min. to talk to you. A few min. turned into 15 min. I was relieved when the Doctor came out and told me the surgery went well.
Mark now has a plate in his elbow with several screws. Once I get those X-rays back I will post those pictures. We stayed in the hospital for two days. So thanks for all the visitors it was nice of you to come check up on Mark. Thank you to all the Family who watched our sweet little Taylor.
Mark says he is feeling pretty good except for the road rash he has on his back......

That had to hurt! Feel better Mark! Sorry I missed that jewelry party the other day. My kids (Ok Allie) was on one and just wouldn't have anything to do with Alex.
Oh no! That is terrible!Hopefully he continues to heal well! What a day/night for you guys!
Ouch! I hope he is feeling better.
Oh my goodness! See...that is why I won't let jake get a bike of any kind. We have 150 cc scooter and that is as close to a bike as he is gonna get, lol! Yeah, my husband is totally accident prone and not the smartest when it comes to things like that so I would much rather have a husband and father in one piece, thank you! Haha...anyway, I'm glad things went well though. Good luck with the healing!
Yowzer!
