**Riff Raff** · 28th July 2005, 16:06

Haven't seen any updates lately on how Dave's going. He should have had his surgery at Hutt Hospital by now, so can someone update us on how he's going? He's still in my thoughts every day.

Went and saw him last weekend and he wasn't too flash. Blood pressure was all over the place. Haven't heard anything since. Will try to find out.

Thanks mate.

Sorry guys for not keeping you informed, I think Stoney was going to do it himself but his last OP has left him a bit flat.

He had the burn mark on his right leg, which had turned septic, scraped off and a skin graft performed.
He found it a very painful experience and has limited his mobility for a while.
But other than that he's keeping good and wishes his recovery time would speed up but is still taking one day at a time.
His main hobbies now are sleeping and eating and commented that when he has fully recovered he's not going to sleep for a year cause he feels like he's already done a lifetimes worth.

When he does go on line it's only for a short time and I think he said he hasn't read all the "major accident" posts yet.

Thanks for that VT. Can you pass on to him my thoughts. Would like to come see him sometime, but don't have any of his details. Although I did drop by and see him in ICU, I haven't seen him since. And I'm conscious of intruding on his privacy. Can you PM me if he's okay with that and let me know how to contact him?

Hi everyone.
Thanks for the concern Riff

I'm sorry fore the delayed reply. I've recently got out of hospital after a skin graft on my right thigh. They take the donor skin from the other, healthy thigh... So now I have two really sore legs and can only just walk, I mean hobble

hehe

I've just logged on and read my pm's, and 1 pages of new posts and I'm already tired! Back to bed

Regards all
Dave.

Cheers Dave,

Nice to know it's all getting better. A few hiccups here and there but generally smooth.

I understand you feeling bored with all the sleeping, hang in there bud.

You seem to have maintained a strong attitude mate, top effort

, not long to go now.
