Subject: Bren Asked Me to Post...

I would have posted sooner but son from Texas was sleeping in the computer room and I finally woke him up at 9:30 so I could post this.

Bren went to the Emergency Room with a broken (shattered) left arm Tuesday evening. One of her frisky heifer calves got a little rambunctious waiting for her to open and close the gates and when Bren turned around to open the gate, she was kicked - she says accidentally and not maliciously so the calf is forgiven.

She had surgery Thursday morning and now has a plate and steel bars to stabilize the arm. I talked to her this morning and she sounded okay - a little spaced out from the pain meds and more than a little frustrated. She knows she's lucky that it was her left arm and not her dominant right arm, but right now, she's feeling the effects of not being able to do the most simplest of things - like typing this message herself.

She wants you all to know that she hasn't abandoned you or the board and will be on as soon as she's able to type. I can only imagine how something like this can make you realize how much we take for granted the use of our hands, etc.

Please keep Bren in your thoughts and prayers and post an uplifting and encouraging message for her. (Although she's on pain medication, she sounded fairly alert and clear headed (or at least the Bren we know and love...sorry Bren but I just couldn't resist.

She told me what the break involved but I'm not sure I can accurately relate it so she can fill you in when she's up to it. Take Bren, get well soon; sending prayers your way.
