Roy's first Worker's Comp Claim | Candice's first MVA

A lot of "firsts" today.

Roy returned home from work this morning to announce that he "must" go to the hospital. About a month ago, he strained his knee at work. He's not one to file Worker's Compensation claims, and had hoped that it would heal on it's own quick enough so, he did not go to the doctor. This is his first claim. Apparently, last night the pain was just too unbearable to ignore any more. He cleaned up and I dropped him at the hospital and go on to work. A couple of hours later he is ready to be picked up. X-rays were taken, a ridiculously large leg brace was applied, and prescriptions were filled. Off to bed he goes.

This afternoon, I received a call from my future daughter-in-law, Candice. She has been driving Aaron's car lately, and he has been driving mom's truck to work (since mom is not using it). Well, today Candice joins the club of drivers' who have had car wrecks. A minor fender-bender really but vehicles these days don't need much bang to break. No one was injured which is all that really matters, but hunny was shook up pretty good and upset. I'll be watching to be sure she doesn't have a delayed whiplash. I left work immediately to check on her. She was able to return to work and I drove the car home. (The cop was such a cutie, by the way.)
