    Hugs for Justin

    From his bio: "One word of advice Justin wants to give new riders is to not give up and keep trying!"
    RM - know that this is EXACTLY what Justin is doing right now. Nothing you've heard about yet is unrecoverable. People survive amazing things. His mom is exhausted, and fighting numbness, fear, and rage - be there for her. OK to just go and sit at the hospital with her for awhile.

    Just remember that he is young which means loads in getting through something like this. Probably the best thing you can do is go to the hospital and just sit a bit with the mom. Right now, this is probably worse on her than him.

    Good vibes are being sent Justins way!

    C'mon Justin. Don't give up. I have a broken vertebrae somewhere in these bones somewhere, I forget which one. So you keep trying. You've got a lot of riding to do

    Oh no! That's a tragic accident, and I'm saying lots of prayers and good thoughts for Justin. He's a fighter, and he'll come through. Please keep us updated.

    Sending out blessing. The fractures in and of themselves - even the spinal one don't sound bad. It's the infection and bleeding that are the major issue here.

    Keep fighting Justin!!!
