Lindsey Vonn Reveals Gross Arm Injury Suffered In Unfortunate Crash

Lindsey Vonn shared some unfortunate news (and some disturbing images) over the weekend.

The U.S. Olympic skier revealed Friday on her Facebook page that she broke her arm in a crash while training in Copper, Colo. As evidence, Vonn posted the X-rays of her severe fracture.

On Sunday, Vonn kept her fans updated via Twitter and took things a step further by sharing a photo of her post-surgery scar. It’s kind of gross, as you’d expect.

All in all, it’s been a very difficult few days for Vonn, who also revealed Saturday on Facebook that she just lost her Uncle Frank to cancer.

Here’s to hoping that Vonn keeps her head up and that better days lie ahead.
