Inlinefour seriously injured!

[Ghost Lemur]

Thanks for the update Donna.

I just came across this thread, never met John, and I don't think we've talked on online, but best wishes and all the best. Amazing to see the great support out there for a fellow biker. I live just round the corner from Burwood also, so when he's up to it I'll pop in and introduce myself. Yell out if there's anything you need, it's no trouble to call in.

hi donna
hope all goes well and restored to his former glory.

It is so comforting to go online and read all your thoughts. John is still being kept under sedation following his op so that his body has a chance to heal - whenever they start to wake him up, he is in too much pain so they sedate him again. He is still in ICU and no word yet as to when he will get moved to the Trauma Unit or to Burwood but I will update as often as I can - God bless you all Donna

Bank account details for those that wanted them:

thanks Donna I will get a reg payment organised stay strong hon

Thank you Donna for the update on how John is doing.
We do appreciate you taking a few minutes out of your time that you are spending with John to let us know how he is doing.

Evening Inline.....and Donna

Stify and I have made a donation to help with whatever it is that the two of you might need to make this journey more comfortable.

Thanks for the updates Donna, I really appreciate your doing this for us and others here at KB who really do care about John.

I can't help thinking of when I had damaged my knee and I thought I was not going to be able to ride my bike to get my Full Licence.
I appreciated talking to you (Inline) how positive you were to me about when I would be able to ride again....your words were all based around following the advise of the doctors and believing that I could make it happen....

Kia Kaha John & Donna.

If you are still in Chch when I come down on work next I will come and visit.

Read the article in the paper and wondered if it was anyone we knew...only to find out who it actually was and then reading this awesome thread just now. I know your neighbour and met you briefly once, even disagreed on KB a few times but damn....no one deserves this.

If there is anything you, Donna and the family need, you know to just ask. There are enough locals here to help out with whatever...only too pleased to help out in any way I can.

All the best wishes in the recovery dude.

Been overseas for 2 weeks and come back to read this.

Even though (like many others) I haven't met IL4 in the flesh, I've definitely had a laugh over some of his posts in the past. Not over this thread, though - hell of a thing to have happen. All the best John and Donna - stay strong.

Everything I wanted to say has been PM'd to SpeedyChick.
Just briefly, my thoughts are with you, and a speedy recovery.

Best wishes from this side of the planet.....

Donna has asked me to update this thread on her behalf firstly by thanking everyone who has sent their best wishes and also to the generous people who have made donations.
John is still in intensive care on a respirator unable to talk (a tube down his throat) and under sedation. He is getting very frustrated with the tube and may require a tracheotomy to allow him to talk.
Donna returns to New Plymouth this weekend so John will be left with other family members in Chch in the mean time.
Also bug UP's to Speedygirl for the way she has taken in Johns whanau and looked after them as well as supporting Donna while in Chch.
