Out of the hospital

[TFOGGER]

As you all may or may not know, I was involved in a motorcycle accident on my way to work on Friday. I got to spend a few days in ICU at the Denver Knife and Gun club, but I am home now resting uncomfortably on about a 6 inch long gash in my right butt cheek. Let the "brain damage" jokes begin!

[ghettodub]

Glad you're ok, Jim. Speedy recovery, man

[cstone]

Were you wearing a helmet? Would that have helped? So anything seated right now is out?

Just kidding. Glad you are on the mend.

And here I was thinking you were taking CC to a whole new level.

Glad you are home and only mildly worse for wear

[Musashi]

Good to hear are are recovering at home.

[Jail]

Have a beer on me and let me know if you need anything.

I have 'em, but consider that the nuclear option.

[MileHighOutlaw]

Speedy recovery and glad to hear that you are doing well.

[wctriumph]

Glad you pulled through, speedy recovery, see you down the road.

[USAFGopherMike]

Glad to hear you're home and ok. As a fellow rider I have to ask since nobody else has, how's the bike? Cause? Please tell me you were in hot-pursuit chasing some guys who robbed a bank or terrorists who had planned to blow something up and were firing a large gun one handed while sliding around a turn in true CGI fashion in a way that not even gay Tom Cruise or anyone from the cast of the expendables could.

PS - I hope your ass heals.

[Tinelement]

Happy healing!!

[Graves]

Also glad you're back, Jim. Hope you heal up quickly!

[kwando]

Hope for a speedy recovery!

[StagLefty]

Good news-glad your OK

Considering a Honda Accord was on top of the bike with its back wheels completely lifted off of the ground is say the bike has seen better days.

Glad to hear you are alive and doing well. I saw the accident and immediately thought there was no way anyone could have survived. Clearly you're one of the luckiest men on the planet! Rest up and get well soon.

[clublights]

Glad your Ok ...


Please tell me it was not your VFR....

[10mm-man]

Glad your ok! Been down many a time.........

[Troublco]

....a 6 inch long gash in my right butt cheek. Let the "brain damage" jokes begin!

I originally thought "He probably hit his head. No problem. Hardest part of his body, and I'm sure he was wearing a helmet."

But to hear you actually got your ass ripped...I was worried!


Glad to hear you're out, and getting better. I've been in a couple ugly bike wrecks, never any fun.

[GhostRider]

hey, glad to hear your okay, glad to have you back

[buffalobo]

I have 'em, but consider that the nuclear option.

Don't listen to mtnrider, We believe you, No Nukes.

Good luck with recovery.

[Fentonite]

Glad you're back!

[hobowh]

glad you're out, best wishes for a speedy recovery

[hcr25]

Jim is a smart guy and always wears a helmet.

Im glad you are doing better old friend!

[TFOGGER]

Sadly, no exciting story. I was on my way to work, running about 55 mph in moderate traffic. The minivan in front of the Civic in front of me came to a sudden stop. The Civic jammed on the brakes, smacked the mini van, I grabbed a bunch of front brake, but there wasn't time to avoid the collision. The front tucked, and the bike slid under the Honda. At some point after I cam off, the bike spun around an I hit it, opening the big slice in my ass cheek. I was wearing full safety gear, which did it's job in exemplary fashion. I initially thought I had escaped without injury, stood up, and noticed a significant amount of blood splashing down the back of my leg, at which point I decided to lay down on the ground and put pressure on the wound to stem the bleeding. I apparently lost about half a liter on scene, and another 300 ml in the ambulance. I never lost consciousness, but they did lose my distal pulse at one point for a few seconds. At some point, an FBI officer showed up and assisted by putting pressure on the wound (I forget his name, but many thanks!). A short bus ride to the Denver Knife and gun club, and they had me stable and on my way into surgery. They got me into radiology, some CT scans and xrays, they got the C-collar off and got me into surgery, then the ICU. I have some observations on the state of health care in this country when I have the energy for a proper rant, but the Trauma center at DHMC is top notch.

[pickenup]

Sponge baths???

[TFOGGER]

Sponge baths???

One,,,after that, they let me get up and take a shower..

[Gman]

Welcome home! Hope your healing goes better at home!

[KestrelBike]

(asking as a fellow rider, but haven't had a bike for 2 years arggghh) Is there anything you would have done differently? Do you think you got complacent with space between the next vehicle? Hope you heal fast and thanks!

[gnihcraes]

Glad you're reasonably ok and wishing you a speedy recovery.

[BPTactical]

Welcome back TFog, if your ass looks that way what does the other guy look like?



As long as he doesn't look like a dick I guess your ok....

[rondog]

Glad you're OK bro! I rode for a lotta years and seemed to have luck on my side. Kinda scared to ride here in Denver Metro area, people are fucking insane here. Sure ain't like it was in OK or Central NY.

[Irving]

Glad you are okay. PM me with any insurance related questions.

[kidicarus13]

Glad you're as okay as you can be at this point.

[patrick0685]

glad to hear your ok...heal fast

[NitroxBoss]

Glad you made it! Damn cages!

[theGinsue]

Welcome back. Sorry to hear that you were forced to eat hospital food for a few days. Let us know if you need anything.

[Big Wall]

Glad you're out. Get well soon.

[WETWRKS]

Get to feeling better dude. :)

[USAFGopherMike]

Wow man. Well I'm glad you got quick treatment. I know what it's like to hit something. Back in 95 I had a truck pull out 25 feet in front of me at 50mph. No blood, but I wound up 50 yards down the street on my belly with some sprains, bruises and a concussion. Bike was destroyed, pride crushed. I hope you're healed up and back on 2 wheels when the time is right.

[Mazin]

Glad to hear your healing up man!

[DD977GM2]

Glad your alright, hoping for a speedy recovery to ya Jim!!!!!!!!!

[rockhound]

Scars............tattoos with better stories :)

[Cman]

Welcome back!

[asmo]

Just remember the 3 universal truths:

Time passes. Wounds heal. Chicks dig scars.

[Jer]

From someone who knows FAR to well what the pain you're going through right now feels like... welcome back and glad you're alright.
