Left him at the hospital about 8:30. He is doing good, they are going to keep him overnight for observation and pain management. He looks pretty rough but no major damage. His helmet saved him. His jacket helped as well. No broken bones, the CT scan looks good. His scapula separated from his sternum on the left side, and some possible muscle damage with his upper left arm. He has multiple small lacerations on the left side of his face. It is going to look like Mrs. Cap dotted both eyes. He had quite a bit of glass in his face and some in his eyes. You can tell he is in pain, but he is still joking with everyone. The eye doctor called in and was there as we were leaving and reported no major abrasions and very near 20-20 vision.
I saw pictures of the scene on an i-phone. I’d guess the bike is a loss. Front end and plastic will just about total one anyhow. But….bikes can be replaced. He is going to be alright, that is what counts.
Details of the accident in the next post.
