    Waiting from my friend on an update, and a bit worried that she didn't respond to me today.
    Yesterday she said he was doing better, breathing on his own. But the cats still showed bleeds.
    It's going to be a long recovery.
    Thanks all for your well wishes.

    Sending good vibes. I believe good thoughts, prayers, vibes whatever you want to call them do work. And if they don't, well no harm done either way.

    All good wishes and healing thoughts for your friend, and I hope you will post updates. When someone is ill or injured, the specifics of faith (or lack of faith) aren't an issue for me. I hope you have good news about your friend very soon.

    doing much better!

    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!

    That is good news, I am glad he is doing better. Do you know if he even remembers what happened?

    I am so glad to hear that your friend is on the mend! The butterflies are having a happy dance now!

    er, oops! Am I even allowed to mention butterflies anymore? My goodness things really seem to have changed over here at TE. I really only check in here now to see if anyone needs butterflies. If they are now deemed offensive, I'm starting to wonder if I should check in here at all....?

    That aside, I'm still sending butterflies to your friend for continued improvement and a full recovery, and to support his family and health care team.

    Hugs, too

    The butterflies are within you.

    I hear they are in desperate need of butterflies in the rainforest.

    I think some of you guys are really over reacting. I think Trisk made a reasonable and respectful point.

    Happy full moon to you too. I also don't understand what prayer requests are doing here in the cycling related forum, not that any of us bother to make sure we are posting in the "right" place. and it is not normally such a big deal.

    But then why someone like LBTC who isn't really hanging out "over here" any more comes back here just to kick sand in someone's face or make a scene is totally beyond me.

    I think Runningmommy was doing just fine over here on her own without someone else throwing in animosity.

    And RM, I do hope your friend heals fast.

    When I read this or how someone is pinned against a wall by a van, it makes me realize how potentially dangerous some situations can be on a bike, and sometimes I'm lulled into a safety net and forget. We need to do the best we can to protect ourselves, be aware and be safe.

    I'll add my good wishes and prayers RM!
