Hey guys, thanks for the comments. Andrew is slowly improving, his pain is under control, and the doctors will be consulting tomorrow regarding what they want to do with his ankle. Thank you for all the prayer, it's working :)

And no, mike, I'm not getting a BMW!!!

LDadrenaline 09-02-2008 08:13 PM

did he dislocate/break his ankle and have bone shards in it? thats what I had and they decided against surgery because they weren't sure if they would be able to find the shards... that was probably a mistake lol, hopefully if he has something similar they decide to operate.

breaking ribs hurts a lot too, but hopefully he is on enough meds from the other stuff where he won't feel it too much.

:( well if u think about it, 40mph aint that slow when u hit something that is not moving. look at the vehicle crash test they do at only 35mph.

Yeah, it was a small palm tree, too. Basically, the car didn't slow down at all before we hit. Tried to correct, but as soon as the car hit the curb with the wheels cut, bye bye steering :( The thing hydroplaned only like 35-50 feet from the tree anyway

Yeah that's true.

Dang, I wasn't expecting it to be that bad. Obvisously, based on Andrews injuries I knew it was a hard hit, but WOW!!! He could have died from that impact. Obvisously, he was wearing his seat belt or else I think that would have been the case.

Frank, did you take the pics?

At any rate, it's a blessing that everyone is going to be ok. Tough times ahead so we'll definitely keep you guys in our prayers.

Damian STi 09-03-2008 10:22 AM

Holy shit that sucks. Tell your boy he'll be fine no worries. I hate seeing subies down!
