Bransen's First Wreck

Bransen experienced his first real wreck of BMX racing and no it wasn't in a dramatic finish to the end or around a turn to gain a position, it didn't even involve anyone else. Just him and his bike.

Moto number 2 come around and he races. He comes around the first turn passing someone and his chain falls off. One of the corner marshalls puts it back together and he finishes the race. Third place but it was total points so he was onto the main event.

He decides to go for practice lap before the main. Out of the gate he comes, over the first jump and that's when it happens. In a blink of an eye, he's flipping off the bike and is on the ground.

I'm over on the whole other side of the track with Brayden. I drop everything to run over. He's got blood all over his face that I can't see the extent of his injuries and he's crying and screaming. I get him under control and we go and walk to get napkins and some peroxide from the first aid kit. We get him cleaned up and we make the drive home.

We get to Jake's parents and Jake's mom gets him all cleaned up! Thank goodness for her!

The next morning. He's just not himself. We go to Daytona to watch Ben race and he ended up going home with my mom. He naps and I go to drop the other boys off at home.

We make a trip to the ER. With the conclusion of a concussion, chipped tooth, some road rash and an xray of his collarbone and jaw (all clear!) we go home to rest! for two weeks! and for the first few nights it was milkshakes for meals!
