Bob is still in the hospital but he is stable. He was on medication...not morphine but a suitable replacement controlled by the "button".
His final tally was 2 fractured fingers on left hand, 2 fractured bones in right wrist, broken or fractured tibia and fibia in right leg. He was pretty coherent after he woke up and was in considerably better shape than the guy next to him, who was also in a motorcycle accident at about 2:45 in the morning on the first of July (Bob's accident was around 4 pm same day). This guy, when he woke up (got rearended on a 150 scooter??? by a car), found his left foot amputated, and he had a lot of abrasions on his face, making Bob look pretty good in comparison...which is saying alot (I know...the pot calling the kettle black)
The operation today resulted in Bob being able to bend his right leg at about a 45 degree angle, tomorrow he is supposed to progress to 60 degrees and eventually to a 90 degree bend.
He is looking at probably being moved in about 10 days to an assisted living center for further physical therapy.
His Rocket was totaled, I am hoping his wife will be able to e-mail me the pictures she took so that I can post them.
Then I went out and saw the new Bruce Willis movie...great action flick.
