[Steppes] my son--good news!

[Michelle Hanson]

We are very glad to hear that surgery was not necessary.  The
re-evaluation will be good news as well I'm sure.

Just got off the phone with Adam and his dad. The orthopedist, upon
seeing 
the leg and the xray in person, took a few more pictures and decided
that 
the tendon is not loose and does not require surgery. He even took the 
immobilizer off. Adam will be in physical therapy for a couple of weeks
and 
then will be re-evaluated. He's still pretty sore, but doing better.
Thanks 
for the good thoughts and prayers.

Please pardon the bandwidth, but You guys are all the family I have,
other 
than my sister.

Many of you had the opportunity to meet my 14 year-old son, Adam, at
AAA. He 
lives with his dad in Oregon and only makes it out here three times a
year, 
which is kind of tough, but this week, tougher. Last night I got a call
that 
he was thrown and stepped on by a horse. Fortunately things aren't a
whole 
lot worse, but he has sustained a chip fracture of his lower leg that
has 
dislocated the patellar tendon that holds the kneecap in place. He will
have 
to have surgery sometime later today or tomorrow to put a screw into the

chip to hold it in position. He wasn't too bad last night, but this
morning 
he is hurting quite a lot and scared of the surgery and what's to come. 
Needless to say, mom is a borderline basket case. It's not really enough
to 
fly back there, but....you know.

Just thought the Steppes-family would like to know
