The end of the week end...........

We went to Alex's hockey game this evening and it did not end very well. As some of you know the team is small, there are only 12 players (10 skaters and 2 goalies) rostered on the team, but it is not very often that all 10 players are skating. In fact, right now one of the players have their arm in a sling, broken collar bone a week ago. Five minutes into the 3rd period tonight, another player went down. 20 minutes later the EMT's and ambulance from West Concord arrived. The player was carried out on a back board. The rumor is that all of Rochester's ambulances were busy and out on call, so they could not respond. It is so scary to see one of the players just lay on the ice. Sometimes it makes me wonder why we go to watch the games.

It was very educational for Zach to see... I did find out last night that there was a large farm house fire between Dodge Center and Claremont - which is probably why we had that 20 min wait for West Concord EMTs.

The last Shawn heard about the team mate is.......got out of the ER about midnight, very sore back, and e-rays looked good. Alex will probably know more when he gets home from school today......hope it is a good report.

Hope the boy is ok, sad to think these kids get hurt so bad sometimes it affects them for life.
