Morgan's Bummed Knee

During a mountain bike ride with Dad and Mason, Morgan took a tumble and boogered up his knee pretty badly.  It required medical attention, and since they were at the top of the hill and sundown was quickly approaching, Morgan bravely decided to coast his way back down to the truck.  Michael took him to the ER, where he bravely endured all that they had to do to him in order to get it stitched up.  He ended up with 21 stitches - 4 internal and 17 external.  I won't show you the "before" pictures, as they are quite gruesome!!  But here he is all stitched up:

While he was healing, Morgan had to wear a knee brace for about 2 weeks to keep his leg straight.  During this time, Mason had to help out with simple tasks like putting on Morgan's shoes and socks!

 Finally, here it is right before the stitches came out.
