Caroline Adams, a 2008 Holliston High graduate, and practicing dentist was injured in New Hampshire last week.  The excerpt below from Boston.com describes the accident.

“A woman was flown to a Massachusetts hospital for treatment Sunday afternoon after sledding over a jump. She was injured by the impact of the fall at a hill in Londonderry, New Hampshire.

Londonderry emergency services responded to a local sledding hill behind Mack’s Apple Farm on Mammoth Road around 2:40 p.m. for a report of a sledding accident.

Firefighters said in a press release that they found the woman, who is in her thirties, suffering from “traumatic injuries” as a result of the accident. She was conscious when they arrived.

Chief Fred Heinrich said the woman sledded over a small jump, and when she landed, she couldn’t feel or move her lower body.

“When she went up on the jump and came down, she really landed pretty hard on her tailbone, and that caused the injury,” Batt. Chief Bo Butler told TV station WMUR.

The woman was taken by Med Flight to Lahey Hospital in Burlington, Massachusetts.”

Caroline is the daughter of Ronald and Ann Adams of Holliston.
