Sam, Sam, Sam
It all started while he was down in Tropic. Sam and Clint went down there for Memorial Day and took their dirt bike motorcycles. They were ready for some fun!
They got there Friday evening, went golfing Sat. morning, met up with Jim and Mick (BIL), and went out in the hills with their bikes. On their way back to the truck, Sam hit a ravine. The bike stopped and Sam flew over the handle bars.
just out of surgery
I guess he dislocated his thumb, but he thought he could tape it up and it would get better. After getting back home, and Trying to work for two days, he finally called an Orthopedic Surgeon friend in Powell, WY. He called at about 10:30 a.m. to ask some questions....What to expect, how long before it heals, etc. Dr. Hansen said that he gets out of surgery at 2:30, to be down by then, not to eat or drink anything, because it sounds like surgery.

So, Sam asks if I could go down with him. Dr looked at it, said Yes, it needs surgery, we need to attach the ligaments back to the bone, or it would never heal. So, he is out of commission for about a week, he has to slowly get back to a full schedule. But what a blessing it was to have a Dr. able to do surgery 5 min. after we got in there. We left Laurel at 1:00 and were back by 8:00. He is anxious to get back to work already.

We knew something was wrong with it, at first glance. It just didn't look quite right. Lots of love and a speedy recovery for you:)!!
well i am sorry to here about the accident but glad that he is fixed and recovering. miss you guys.
That is amazing! Truly a blessing! That would never happen here in "Big City Land!" I hope he starts feeling better soon!!!
Sam!! I hope you are ok. Sorry you had to have surgery- take care of yourself.
Sam, Sam, Sam!!! I'm just glad it wasn't Clint, Clint Clint!!!! Good thing they didn't take the motorcycles this time!!!
Life is too short to have too many things like this happen, so hopefully there isn't anything like this is the future. Time does heal trauma injuries much of the time. Lo Siento, Sam!
Oh Sam. I wish Becca put a video of you flying over the handle bars on her blog. Darn. I am glad that there are good Dr.'s that can put ligaments back. Do you have those hands insured?
Sam always keeps us on our toes...take care of yourself. Thank goodness for Dr. friends!
