[QUOTE="f150fatboy, post: 1256493, member: 7236"] It all started Sunday around 1 pm. Hopped on the Atv to check the cows, had one looking like she was about to calve. Called the wife, she said yes that particular cow should calve this week. Went back to the house and started watching the race. Went back out around around 2 and cow was picking, went back to the house, continued watching race. Then major thunderstorm until around 3:30, checked cows again, new bull calf! Went back to house, wife went back with me to check calf. All is good! Back to house, I finished watching race, wife watched something else. Around 5 I went to check cows again, wife wanted to stay at house and check calf we are weening in barn lot. When I got back to the house, wife was laying face first in grass. I jumped off ATV and ran over to see what the heck just happened. She was walking down a hill with a bucket of feed, slipped in wet grass and hurt her ankle. I wanted to take her to the ER, but she wouldn't have it. Fast forward this morning, she couldn't walk be herself and let me take her to the Dr. After x-rays, she is scheduled for surgery next week. :( Broken Ankle! Please keep her in your prayers. Guess you never know what is going to happen on a hobby farm. [/QUOTE]
