SWMBO has never ever been on a snowboard. So I took her snowboarding for our Valentines Day retreat. My sister came up and babysat for us and we had our big day planned out. Bought her clothes, borrowed a board for her, rented her boots and bought our lift tickets. We took a few before pics to commemorate the occasion. I took her on the bunny slope first since she had never done it before. She was falling down a lot as I expected. She finally got herself on her feet and went about 10 feet or so when she fell on her butt. Well, before she could get back up a little kid came barreling down the mountain and crashed right into her knee. He came right from the side and crashed headfirst right into her right knee. She screamed and I saw her knee bend inwards. We didn't even make it a quarter of the way down the slope.
Ski patrol had to come and take her away on a sled and take her to first aid. We ended up in the emergency room for 8 hours!!!
Now we are awaiting an MRI (tomorrow). Sounds like she tore her meniscus
and may need surgery. Damn.
