ART'S LEG

ART BROKE HIS LEG IN A BIKING ACCIDENT IN DOYLES TOWN PA. HE AND PETE WERE BIKING AROUND THE LAKE AND ART HAD TO GO AROUND SOME PEOPLE AND THEN THERE WAS A BIG HOLE HE HAD TO GO AROUND THE OPPOSITE WAY. HE THEN HIT SOME WET LEAVES AND WENT DOWN. LUCKILY HE PUT HIS LEG OUT TO CATCH HIMSELF AND IT TWISTED HIS LEG AND CRUSHED THE FEMUR. HE SPENT ALMOST 2 WEEKS IN THE HOSPITAL IN ABINGTON, PA. WE FLEW HOME WITH ART HAVING BEEN ADDED A ROD IN HIS LEG. HE IS BEING ATTENDED AT HOME NOW WITH VISITS FROM HOME HEALTH CARE. HE IS DOING ALRIGHT BUT IT WILL BE AWHILE BEFORE HE IS FEELING GOOD. WE HOPE IT WON'T BE TOO LONG BEFORE HE WILL BE REALLY HOPPING AROUND ON HIS CRUTCHES. AND THE DOC SAYS HE SHOULD BED ALL HEALED UP IN 6 WEEKS BUT WILL JUST THEN START PUTTING WEIGHT ON HIS LEG.
