Misty had been planning and looking forward to the ladies weekend for some time, and seeing that she would be away I took the gap and planned a weekend away with my daughter. Saturday morning Misty phoned me: "I just had a little swerve for a car and another swerve for a tree but I DIDN'T fall off!!! I hit the tar with my foot though and then couldn't get off the bike my leg so sore"
"Ok" I say wondering if I should say well done for saving it, and half expecting her to reply that she is on her way to the ladies weekend by now.
"I'm in hospital - Li brought me... it does'nt look good - so much pain"
Geez!!! You know that feeling when you really did'nt expect what was coming and you sitting helpless 150km away!!!
You never know how life will turn - we had just moved into a bigger place, started the mountain bike thing like Beemerman said!!! and and life was settling into a new routine and there were some good rides planned (on the motorbikes ok!!!). Unfortunately this is a setback, but only for a while - Misty is one helluva tough and determined chick, so we will get her back on her feet soonest whilst taking note of what the doc orders: take it easy on that leg (for up to 2 years, otherwise...).
Misty we thinking of you for the op today, and I will post later as to how she comes through.
