Memorial day wiffleball game gone wrong. My buddy ran full speed into a fence and "broke his knee" as the doctors say. Freak accident from hell, how this happened I'm still trying to put together. Poor guy is getting married in 5 weeks too. So how was your memorial day?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

QUOTE his fiancee is not pleased I hate to say it but sympathy is the right emotion here. The fiancee needs to take look at priorities. Dave |

I agree and she was concered first and foremost at the hosptial.... but as my wife pointed out, the only thing she can think about right now is how this is going to change their wedding day. He won't be able to walk down the aisle, dance, etc. The guy just can't seem to catch a break recently... |
