D'oh! (graffic)

This post is probably PG-13

Tonight we visited Mom Stucki, who had a pretty rough day. She goes to work early in the morning to unlock the office and turn on the lights. She said her prayers which allowed her to get to work safely, but it was her office that was the danger. She doesn't know quite how it happened but when she unlocked the door and went inside, she was turning on the light when she took a hard fall and caught herself with her nose. When she picked herself up off the floor, her nose was gushing copious amounts of blood. She resourcfully grabbed a garbage can and carried it beneath her face while she got ice for what assuredly was a broken nose. She layed on the couch while she iced her nose and called Dad to come get her. She spent several hours in the ER with dad getting Xrays and a CT of her head to check for fractures. At some point shortly after the fall, she realized her left elbow hurt, which also turned out to be fractured. Thankfully, there were no fractures to her skull and no major bleeding. Her nose has an incomplete fracture on the left side. As you can see in the picture, she's pretty swollen and she's got two shiners. But, she's in good spirits and her pain meds are helping to keep her more comfortable. We'll keep her in our prayers and hope the recovery is speedy. As a side note, oddly enough, the tally for broken bones in the Stucki family is, Girls: 3 Boys: 0
