What a suprise!!! Yesterday a nurse came in with a hand full of cards from my friends here. Thank you all so much. You have no idea how happy that made me. This is such an amazing site. I feel like everyone here is family. That is just so nice.
Here is an update on my condition. I am feeling much better. each day the pain gets less and less. I am able to sit up a little more so it is easier to type. I am able to move my leg a little so that is a good sign. I saw my xrays for the first time today. They weren't able to get it 100% but they say it shouldn't stop me from walking but I will probably have arthritis problems in the future and I might have to have the hip replaced sometime later in life. But I won't worry about that for now. I am just happy that I will be able to walk again. I met the driver of the van yesterday. He was so suprised that we were shaking his hand and thanking him for taking me to the hospital. I think he was expecting us to be mad at him. He speaks some english and he ended up staying for a while hanging out watching tv. I honestly think I am alive due to his honesty and kindness. Most people here would have just driven off and left me. He picked me up and took me to the hospital. I didn't know this untill last night but he actually stayed in the waiting room at the hospital most of the night to make sure I was alright.
Again thank you all for everything. You all are the best friends anyone could have.

QUOTE it can't be all bad if the nurses look like the one on the cover of newsweek @ their website
Gotta agree!
Josh - I sent one earlier today to you.

Guys,
I shot Josh another card, so he might get it by Christmas. Just a thought, this Christmas will certainly be unique for him.

Looks like you are making the best of what you have Josh. Well done.
Have a great Christmas in a faraway land. Make the most of it because one day years from now when you have kids around your feet and christmas paper from one end of the house to the other not to mention surviving on three hours sleep, you can look back on this day and smile.
"View life by smiles, not by tears and age by great moments not by years."
Have a great christmas matey and next year, well that's gonna be your year.
Dave
