Everyone pray for my dad. He highsided today and broke his pelvis and collar bone. Scary day for my family

Thanks for the support guys. I'm a little shook up. It's hard to get the mental pic out of your head. He will be fine he's in surgery now

Ouch I can't think of two bones I'd rather break less. I hope that his surgery came out ok. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Dad is doing well. Ended up being his pelvis, collar bone, 4 ribs, and his sternum. He got 4 plates and 21 screws in his pelvis. He got out of surgery last night and they have already moved him out of ICU! He's got a long recovery ahead of him but he's doing great. Thanks for the prayers.

I'm glad to hear your Dad is doing good even though it sounds like he won't be riding for a while.

Thanks for the update.
