how scary! A fractured collar bone is very painful, but they do heal (though mine is no longer straight). So glad it wasn't worse.

Any time your babies are hurt, it's so awful. Such a helpless feeling as a parent. Glad she was not hurt worse.
Yes, thank God for helmets! My shoulder is permanently seperated from my crash (&helmet saved me from being scrambled egg brains). Common bike injury by nature unfortunately. It takes time, but youth usually helps any injury situation as a plus.
Hope she heals well. (((hugs)))
That's so scary! She sounds like one tough little girl.

I'm so glad it was only the clavicle. What a scary accident!
Sending quick healing thoughts your way!
Healing juju headed your way. Hope she isn't too sore the next few days.

That sounds scary! Your daughter sounds like a real trooper though. I hope she heals quickly and well. Give her a gentle hug from all of us at TE.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

What all the others said -- what a shock! And I'm very impressed with how everyone, above all your daughter, handled it.
You all must have been so scared...so sorry this happened. Thank God for helmets. Mine saved my life when i got hit by a car last year.
She's going the distance...
