Mid September, Michael fell off scaffolding while working  and fractured his left elbow.   After weeks of intense pain and many doctor visits, we've learned he completely crushed the tip of both his ulna and radius at the elbow joint.  These will need to be replaced with surgery in the next few weeks. 

We are currently overwhelmed with the medical expenses already aquired and ahead of us.  The surgery will also require months of recovery before he's able to work on and off the ranch agian, leaving a financial deficit for our family.
