Uncle Mike

As of last evening, Mike had been moved to a normal hospital room, had a new addition in his side, a tube to eliminate some internal bleeding pushing against his lungs, only 10% deflation of his damaged lung, and they were going to get him up to walk last night. Last we talked with Uncle David, he and Aunt Terry were on their way to grab a bite to eat and pick up a shake for Uncle Mike.. and he was very happy to hear that!

David picked up the bike from the lot in Enid where it went after the accident and quickly decide the nice folks running it were crooks... NEVER call Direct Towing in Enid for any reason!
He reported the bike is in three pieces and is completely messed up on the side we could not see, including a broke frame. I believe he reported the bike to be in three pieces and nothing moved, with most damage on side we could not see or that was not shown in the photos from Saturday.

As of last evening we believe he will be in St. Mary's for at least another week, and then to rehab but this is very fluid and subject to change hourly or more often.

His attitude is great. His memory is a bit improved, amazingly on some things and lacking in places, like mine on a normal day, haha....

Not sure his room number... Ann knows it...

but to send cards... use:


St. Mary's Regional Medical Center
Attn: Patient Mr. Mike Shaklee
305 South 5th
Enid, OK 73701




and phone to call and talk... main number is (580) 233-6100  and I be they will transfer you to his room.


All I know for now....
