Attack of the Lawnmower!

For any of you guys out there who are looking for an excuse not to mow the lawn, I've got one for you. Michael was mowing the lawn yesterday on his day off. The lawnmower shot out a rock which became embedded in Michael's shin bone as well as shattering into about thirty pieces all in his skin and muscle. He went to Urgent Care "just to make sure the wound was cleaned out all the way" and the doctor ended up having to yank pieces of rock out of his bone and even shave the bone!! They gave him IV antibiotics and sent him to the pharmacy for an antibiotic "horse pill" and for pain meds. His leg didn't start hurting until about 9pm, but by then he said it felt like they had shaved off some of his bone. :( The doctor told him he needs to wear his shinguards when he mows the lawn from now on - COOL! Seriously though, please pray for his recovery. He was planning on going turkey hunting with a couple of guys this weekend and, conveniently for my husband, hunting is a great ministry opportunity here in Montana. :) The doctor said it would be fine; I guess we'll just have to see how well he's getting around. Whatever you do, remember how dangerous it is to mow the lawn! :)
