He was up and moving yesterday, even got to take a shower. He's also aware of how severely injured he was. I guess he lamented that he can't even spell anymore.
But the good news is they have started therapy with him. So I guess you could say he is out of the woods.

And thanks all for any good thoughts/prayers/vibes or WHATEVER that you sent his way. I also believe that it helps- or I wouldn't have posted it. And I still believe that it was in "the right" forum as it was a cycling related accident. I don't know how ya'll search this forum, but I just search on new posts whenever I log on. So I don't even know which forum an individual topic was put under. Does it REALLY matter??? As a longtime member of this forum I have met many wonderful folks with beliefs that are not my own. I do not get offended by their beliefs or posts. Some things I don't believe in, but I respect their right to believe whatever they want. I just close the thread and move on. But as I said, I love and embrace the diversity, love, and tolerance of everyone on this forum. I hope it stays this way.
And from the family of my friend. They thank you!

Stay safe everyone!
