Poor Adam. The x-ray showed a fracture right by his elbow and the doctor felt he had a concussion too. He showed signs of a concussion for the next 3 or 4 days. They left him in just a removable brace for 10 days and then x-rayed him again. For some reason, they didn't want to cast it right away but wanted to wait. The doctor said he could just stay in the brace but he would have to be really good and not do anything active 5-6 weeks. That was kind of funny. When I explained that we were leaving to go to a soccer tournament that very day and that he still wanted to ski, the doctor was totally on board with a cast. He has to wear it for 5 weeks but it is water-proof. I was a little skeptical but it is totally water proof. He can shower and go swimming.... no problem. Wow!!
So he got the cast on and then we picked up Rachel and headed to Mesquite, NV, for Adam's tournament. Rachel went with us so she could ref the tournament. She did 9 games which is A LOT and she was totally exhausted but a little richer by the end.
We had to wrap Adam's cast in bubble wrap for him to be able to play. This is how it looked.
They played well but didn't make it to the finals. Here are some action shots of Adam..... and Rachel.
This was a great left cross for the assist for their first goal of the game!!
And in case you are wondering, yes, Adam is skiing with his cast as well. :-)
