Your still in our Prayers . Hope for a full recovery.
+1It goes without saying but.... keep us posted Don...I just spoke with Robert and he said Naomi was doing much better, but he didn't know if she was going to get to go home today or not. He was busy with her and phyiscal therapy so I didn't get to ask him about Jimmy. I am planning to go visit Jimmy Saturday morning.
Good to see, Don. Glad to see you're making a visit. Just a heads up, despite Jimmy's tough looking exterior, Jimmy is fairly mild-mannered (cool, calm and collective) so just know it's not the morphine.Robert just left me a message (I was in a meeting and couldn't take the call). He and Naomi are on the way home. He said that if she gets too tired that they would stop overnight, otherwise they are headed to the house.
Let us (me) know what Jimmy needs to get home....he's NOT paying for his ticket back.Late updating from yesterday, but Jimmy called me yesterday to let me know he is alive and recovering but has a long way to go. He was actually able to sit in a chair...anything to get out of that bed for awhile.
I'm not sure regarding the pelvis but I know from three prior surgeries on my left hand starting re-hab/therapy just after surgery is critical. Ask me why I had three?! He said the docs told him about two years before the full extent of recovery and healing will be realized. Hopefully, he will be coming home in a week or so.
Not sure what special arrangements will be needed to fly home, but I'm going to take some time looking into finding the least expensive tickets for them flying home. I actaully have access to a travel-agent authorized only database so I'll see what shows up.

Believe me I totally understand your feelings, however, since you recognized that Robert was in over his head I cannot help but wonder why you were following him so closely that you, too, were almost involved in the crash.I am really having a hard time keeping my mouth shut here! I am really glad that Naomi is ok however I am really pissed off about the condition and circumstance that Jimmy is in. Not only is this totally screwing up his and his family's life, but I could have been in his place right now. I was closest to the accident and barely able to keep from being involved myself. The total disregard for everyone's safety and well being including his own (Dad of Three) absolutely baffles me. For everyone to be on here feeling sorry for him is absolute bullshit! He put himself and everyone else's lives on the line by riding far beyond the capacity of his and his machines ability. I know that it is PC to sit back and keep our mouths shut however I can't.....Flame on!
