Katiepie donation thread (a Kiwi Biker whip round)

Bullshit. Been in plenty of times and cellphones are no issue. It's bullshit that they interfere with equipment, just like its bullshit they give you cancer.

Completely agree. It is also a myth that they interfere with aircraft equipment. This has been tested and published.

[hellokitty]

no cells allowed in hospital wards...kinda like planes and forecourts

I have been in hospital many times recovering from surgery and have had the use of my cell - and have been harassed by my boss and workmates asking dumb questions.
I was at the hospital last Thursday and Friday with my husband and my damn phone was going the whole time. Very annoying to others on the ward too I bet!
I would say the cell phone is banned so Katie can have some peace - it is very tiring when you have to answer the phone all the time, or try to text. Particularly someone as popular as Katiepie

jesus this is dragging on...
Her cell phone is NOT banned, its next to her on her bed!

Man if I didn't know better I swear you were gay

Your not looking in the right closet

[White trash]

Just waiting for trashy to bring in the side chair to really get her heart rate racing.

Thanks heaps for the update Carla. Might give the side car a week or two I reckon, despite a whole heap of belief from the majority of KB I personally think the girl needs a bit of rest.

Thank you for the updates and photos mate, let her know we're still thinking of her when you see her next

You are on to it Jimmy - she gets sooooo tired, and its so blindingly obvious when she is. But I think now that everyone has had a chance to actually see her and that she is okay, they are now being more careful about the visiting.

Kept a quiet eye on how she's doin and pleased to see her able to put on a brave face (knowing full well that position sucks)
Give her a thumbs up from me will ya !

But if they're not, you could always use the money to hire a bouncer to keep them out when she needs a rest. Rest is paramount to her recovery so folks try to remember that.

+1 million.

Rest key and surely a little bit of privacy as she regenerates too...it will only mean she is up and at em again sooner too.

Thanks to the power of the internets we can let her know we are all thinking of her, rooting for her and sending her all our positive vibes and love without ALL getting up in her grill.

Mend and rest well KP

The joys of being hospitalised,all visitors want to visit when you're recovering and tired,then when you can handle a few more visitors they all bugger off lol.

Just shows the biking spirit we have,in bad times help isn't far away,thanks for updates.

That's why I haven't visited her. When she's out of the 24 hour care the hospital provides, and if her parents have to get back to their jobs / lives, she'll need friends at home to help out. I know it will be tough for her, I mean she will be hanging out to do housework, jobs around the house, but instead she'll have to rely on us to do many of those chores. I'm handy with a lawn mower and a chainsaw, even when they are not attached to the bike.

Besides, I know a visit from me is something for KP to look forward to when she is out of hospital

[brumax]

give her a wee squeeze from me

[junkmanjoe]

Best wishes to you katie..

sucks to know you went down in my back yard with out any knowing of the incident.

with out fail would have been out looking for you my self.. only really 3 sealed back roads between the gladstone and martinbrough areas, im guessing this is the direction you where traveling.. unless you got lost and ended up on gravel... which is possible with out to much trouble. im not sure where you where found, i believe in the parkvale area,maybe on the masterton / martinbrough road.

once you start to get deeper in to the wairarapa back country road network they go for a very long distance its easy to fill a days riding out here.

one point to come from this is wairarapa back country roads are not high volume traffic roads, its easy to ride all day out here and see no one.... ive often thought to my self... im all alone if some thing goes wrong.and im a long way out.

katie is lucky her phone had signal, you dont have to ride very far out to lose signal,,,,this out come could have been much worse if her phone didn't work....

but im sure the alert would have been raised if she never returned home....

ok im a retired road bike rider,and now ride adventure bikes,,but im more then happy to tag along on any rodie rides around the wairarapa district,, if you alone and would like some one to ride with.. drop us a pm..
safety in numbers.
