[Magdalen] Prayers for my daughter

[Marion Thompson]

My daughter, Fiona, is a keen cyclist and is now married into that.  She
met Carlo on her ride across Canada for Sears Kids with Cancer in 2011 when
she turned 50. I digress...

Yesterday  they were all out doing that and she clipped the wheel of the
fellow she was drafting.  Apart from bruises and abrasions, she has a
fractured collarbone and fractured pelvis, little enough damage from when
you hit the ground at 30 mph.  Poor thing, there goes the summer, but I
know she'll be good about physio as appropriate.  Thank God for helmets.

A few years back on another cross country ride to Halifax, she had a slo-mo
tumble in Quebec City.  Only in Halifax was it determined she had ridden
all that way with a broken wrist.

Attsa my girl!
