    Please let his mom know that we are all thinking of them. I was in a car accident 18 years ago with a serious head injury. I don't remember anything that day, my stay at the hospital... I lost my taste and smell for almost a year. Parents need support when their child is hurt. Give them my love.

    I noticed you mentioned sending something to the hospital. If he is in ICU, they are usually pretty strict about what can be in the rooms, no flowers, plants, etc. My suggestion if you want to do something is instead of flowers, the usual, when you go see the parents, take some food or snacks to them. If she is like most of us, she will not be eating well, and she really needs to keep up her strength. Just a thought from someone who has had a child in ICU.

    Another Update

    Another not so good update.
    I talked to Justins mom this morning. They had taken him down to pull some spinal fluid to test it for menengitis (sp?).
    They think that all the blood that pooled inside him may have caused it.
    She was lamenting that every time she turns around it's something new- and awful.
    But he does have AWESOME doctors, so he's very lucky.
    Every time I talk to her I try to say something inspirational and positive, but it sure is hard to know what to say.
    sigh...
    Speaking of a positive note... Intense is coming through BIG TIME!! They are sending him a cool new helmet, and she said she was going to find some other stuff to send him as well.
    He really loves his Intense, and talks the company up all the time. So they are rallying behind him. It's so nice to deal with such a wonderful company. And his mom was touched by all of our kindness.
    Ok, got a customer- gotta go get to work.
    Continue your prayers! And thanks for caring!
    Denise
