I still can't think of words that describe how grateful Alba and I are for the never ending kindness of you all, you'll never know how much the Visits, Meals, messages etc have helped and we thank you all soo much!!
It's been 7 weeks almost since my crash and all my friends here deserve an update...and it seemed for the first few Days I was in ICU in Ventura they found something new to which my reply was "Oh good, that's all I need" :-S
But in any case, I started off with a Brain Hemorage (sp?) , fractured neck and several other vertebrae, 4 fractured ribs, 2 broken hands and I bit the end of my tongue off which left me talking with a bit of a lisp the first week!!
Last Thursday I had the Pins removed from my Hands, so today is pretty much the first day I've been able to sit and use the Laptop, this is my first message :red:
As IR2 said, I went to UCI Hospital there and see my what would have been my new Neuro Surgeon, and she told me surgery isn't neccessary becuase I'm mending OK, which is a huge relief because it would have wound the clock back on my recovery...
I have to wear the back brace for six more weeks but at least she gave me the OK to get in and out of bed myself so I don't have to rely on people to get me in and out...
Everyone including my wonderful wife, friends, nurses, doctors etc etc have been awesome, I owe so much but hope I don't have to re-pay in the same way, let me say I will just pass it on yeah??
By the way, I'm still under heavy medication so I hope this makes sense...
Thank You again everyone
