Ready for Gory Pictures?!?

So, now that we are back in SoCal, everyone who might be upset by the pictures has seen the worst of them (the moms!). Looking back at them, I guess they aren't too bad. The worst was after David's elbow had been sufficiently irrigated to clearly see the tendon torn and a thread still attached and the bursa sac, etc, but I couldn't bring myself to take a pic at that point. Not so much because it was too nasty, but just out of respect for David who was having a difficult time with the ensuing discussion of surgery an starting an IV. Man, I wish I had, though.
One of the things we were hoping to do on the slow trip back was to catch a baseball game and it turns out my brother and his family had tickets to go to a pre-4th of July celebration game tonight! We got tickets for the Lake Elsinore Storm, a AA or AAA team; I'm not sure which. We will spend tomorrow at my parents senior park where they are having a big BBQ. They also have a parade in the morning an we are going to decorate my mom's golf cart and the kids will get to be in the parade! When I used to have my red convertible, I used to decorate it and my dad would dress up as Uncle Sam and ride as the Grand Marshall! That must have been 17 or 18 years ago!

Eeewww- see the blood on the headliner!?! Can you believe I washed that blue shirt an all the blood came out!!

  2. ech! I like you all "bandaged up" better! You guys should google your blog because someone has commented on your accident on her blog- just goes to show you how small our world can be sometimes. Happy 4th to you all! We have a fire- got cold watching our little parade, and will BBQ later.
