Ann and Mike... wonder if she needs a bike...
the helmet that saved a life, and the rider who was wearing it!
Mike update.. 9:30am
Mom just talked via phone with Mike, and David.
He told her he was told he had a motorcycle wreck and that maybe he was getting to old for that... haha...
He was eating broth and ice fed to him by David.
Ann and Heather are going over this afternoon, I think.. such great news.
This event could have been easily very different if he had not had his helmet on.
That one piece of equipment saved his life... NO DOUBT about it! It is cracked from top to bottom on backside and had the strap torn away, and while it was black, we were told there was red paint all over it, but then had that correct to blood all over it.
He has a mark around his face where the force of the wreck threw him into the front of the helmet.
His Dr. is Dr. Pollard, and he told us while showing us the exrays... just how easily it would have been different outcome without helmet, and we all agreed that if he did not have his helmet, yesterday would have been planning a funeral instead of visiting him in ICU.
So... good news today.. let's hope it stays on this course...

Ed's note:
Wow....
There is quite a tale here to tell.. haha...
I think after this time, I have learned my lesson.
I used to never ever ever plan a thing, knowing it would be changed at the last minute.
But, even knowing this, I decided back in the late winter to change my thinking regarding this and start planning things like most normal folks...
So, I bought Alice in Wonderland 3D tickets for me and my family to see the movie in Tulsa at IMAX.... Ann and I did not get to go and those tickets were lost...
Then, I bought tickets to see Ellis Paul for Ann and I and we did not get to go to this show but unlike last time and tickets lost.. our tickets were used by Jake and Trish, so not all lost...
but I would love to have been on this trip and to eat here... etc..
maybe in another life... where nothing is planned... again... haha... rock on.. glad you guys had a great time! Dad M
