Big ouch! Sorry to hear that, he's going to need your help as he heals. It will take a while. Wish him the best and we look forward to seeing him on crutches.

My father went skiing with Rodger Fry yesterday. Had a great half of a day, he said he was skiing better than he had in a number of years. After taking a break (Rodger step in if I'm incorrect here), he got whacked by the lift while standing in line. When he hit the ground, he broke his right hip. It is a clean break, right through the top of the femur. So he is getting a new hip this morning. They are prepping him for surgery right now, it'll probably be at least four hours from now before I have any more information. If anyone wants to call him tomorrow or stop by, let me know off list and ill give you the relevant info. Dan -- Sent from my Incredible.
