Elder Sorensen vs. The Toilet

November 20th was a Sunday.  Elder Sorensen wasn't feeling very well that morning, but being the uber diligent missionary that he is, he went to church anyway.  During the middle of Sacrament Meeting, he tapped his companion, Elder Carter, on the shoulder and bolted out of the chapel for the restroom.  Elder Carter followed as quickly as possible, but by the time he got to the bathroom, Elder Sorensen was laying on the floor in the stall in a pool of blood, unconscious.  It seems that he made it as far as the bathroom, but before he could kneel down to yak in the toilet, he fainted.  He fell, smashing his face on the porcelain toilet, breaking his nose and knocking out two front teeth.  After an ambulance ride to the Emergency Room at the local hospital in Tooele, he trekked into Salt Lake City and an hour or so in a dentist's chair for some emergency treatment. By the end of the day, he was pretty worn out!

  Not the best day of his life!  Although Elder Carter was smart enough to gather up his teeth from the bathroom floor, the dentist was unable to replace them.  He ended up looking sort of like he had been in a bar brawl.

 But after many trips to the dentist and the doctors, our favorite Elder Sorensen is as handsome as ever, with his sparkling new porcelain teeth!
