Jory: Get Well Soon!

We wish our son-in-law, Jory, a speedy recovery. He seems to get a lot of tough breaks (literally). Pardon me if these details are not be 100% accurate. Jory, Candace and kids were camping with Jory's family at Strawberry Reservoir. Jory and his uncle went on a motorbike ride. While going through some loose gravel or rock, Jory tipped to the side and he put his foot out to catch himself. He suffered a bad break in his ankle. Jory's uncle didn't want to leave him alone in such horrible pain but couldn't find anyone at a nearby camp to be with him. Jory had an ambulance ride to the hospital in Heber where he underwent surgery to put him back together with pins and plates. If this accident isn't enough, by the time Jory gets 'back on his feet,' he will probably be unemployed as well. He works for the Albertsons stores in the Salt Lake Valley in loss prevention/security. With some stores being closed and the others bought out, Jory will be out of a job. With all of our family problems lately, I feel so powerless to make things all better again. Let's all hope and pray for some miracles for the VanWagenen family!
