Ok, I could have lost both my parents over Father's Day weekend. On Saturday my mom was broadsided in her PT Cruiser. Thankfully everyone was relatively OK. She was very banged up and taken to the emergency room for tests, but she mostly very bruised and scraped up.
Last night I got a call from my sister that on Father's Day my dad was in a motorcycle accident while on vacation out in Wyoming and points west. Nobody called to tell us until last night! An elk or something came onto the road and they slowed down to pull over and hit loose gravel and wiped out. My dad has a broken collar bone, two broken ribs and a separated shoulder. His girlfriend (my parents separated many many years ago) was on back and she got very scraped up but no broken bones. He also went to the emergency room -- but then continued with his vacation in a van! Stubborn, I'd say.
I am relieved everyone is relatively OK. I have to call Dad now and see how he's doing...
