The Hero Falls....Literally

If you remember this post about my brother John, you know that he's my hero.

Did I also mention he's a klutz!?! Well, on Sunday, my hero, was trying to clean out the gutters on his house and he fell off a ladder. He hit his head on the barbecue grill and had to have 5 stitches. He also bruised his kidney and broke his C1 vertebrae (the one above the tail bone). He's at home resting and he'll be ok. He just needs to rest. Thank God he was only on the first story roof and not the second. It could have been much worse. We've been giving him grief that he needs to hire someone next time. He's a technology guy, not a manual labor kind of guy.
