The saga...

In January we had the challenges of our son and his horse riding accident. He had a fractures pelvis and broke the big butterfly bone in his hip. At first they said 3-6 months, BUT he was cleared from the Doctor at just three months. He has enjoyed riding almost everyday for the past couple of months, but of course now it is getting really hot so he is doing less. BUT now
We are finding out that his injuries weren't just contained to his pelvis and hip. He also suffered a jaw injury along with it, but we were so into the other injuries that we didn't realize that the jaw injury had taken place. He was complaining about his jaw but we just thought it was because he was clamping down on his teeth hard at night.
So now we are doing xrays and cat scans to determine what is really wrong with his jaw and what will need to be done. The big problem is that...
He is headed off to University in the fall and ... well you can guess the rest of story or if not you shall just have to wait and see what the next chapter of the jaw and university brings... I know I can hardly wait!!!
