In February, Sam took up mountain biking. It was something that he saved and saved for so he could get an awesome bike. He has been itching to go every weekend since we moved up here. I think this was his 3rd trip and it happend to be his last, for a little while that is. You see, Sam and his mission buddy Russel went up to a trail in Draper. I just happened to tag along to do some shopping down that way, thank goodness. They told me it would only be about a 30 minute ride. 45 minutes later they come stumbling in the door. Well, Sam was, not Russel. Sam was not feeling too hot, took a stumble over his handle bars and landed on his left shoulder. He is pretty good at handling his pain, but this time he really was feeling it. We went to the Urgent Care, thank goodness I've been working- a perk is that my family gets treated for 5 bucks! Sam has a 2nd degree AC seperation in his left shoulder. So, here he is a day after. Luckily, physical therapy and lots of R and R will cure this one. Well, we hope so anyway, we hear this shoulder thing is a nagging injury. So far, PT has been going great, after the second session he already had is range of motion back.
