How we spent Monday

Bubbie got hurt on Monday after school.  Riding his bike over to a friend's house, he lost control of it when he turned a corner of the street covered in loose gravel.
Slippery gravel + bike going fast = wipeout  He landed on the handlebar,  and a good sized hernia resulted, with a loop of bowel poking up.  Surgery was needed to close the gap.  It wasn't exactly a fun experience, but everyone was so nice to him at the hospital - it really made me proud to say I work there.  The surgeon fixed him up, and we are back at home.
And a couple of parents I know have a few more gray hairs.
