Hey guys,
I really really really appreciate your thoughts and concerns. I just got home yesterday and have been resting ever since. I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm recovering and hoping to start boosting again soon!! First things first I just gotta rehab my arm and get it out of this damn cast and it looks like my face is going to heal up alright (not that I look good anyway, but what the hell). You guys truly are like an extended family for me and I enjoy every moment that I'm on the boards reading and replying to your posts. This one is especially touching for me!
I escaped the accident with first off my LIFE!! I suffered 2 compound fractures to my left forearm (2 bones sticking out of the skin) which required surgery to repair. I also had some plastic surgery done to my face (which the doctor did a pretty good job), one missing tooth and another cracked (the two front). As you all know I did loose a fellow brother (Officer Ryan Goto) in the accident and the other officer is still in critical condition with a broken #1 and #2 vertebrae. If you guys need to know which ones that is that's the same ones that Christopher Reeves (Superman) suffered which paralyzed him. The doctors say for one thing it's a miracle he's alive and for another thing he was not paralyzed due to this injury. I have not spoken to the family of the 12 year old girl that passed, but I'm hoping to do so in the near future once I get better. Thanks again everybody!!!
Dave
