Just got off the phone with Mel and she reports no change overnight which is a very good thing.
He's currently in a stable condition in Hutt Hospitals ICU unit, although he is still unconsious. The doctors have not yet decided when they intend to wake him up.
The ICU is closed for visits between 2 and 4pm each day and Mel has asked you not visit first thing this morning as the family want to spend some time with him.
If you visit him, and want somewhere to let everybody know how he is you can this thread.
Again, if you need more info then PM Deano, Darkman or myself.

Mel's just txt'd me that he's waking up all by himself.
Fantastic news.

Well he's awake, a "bit" groggy and hates the breathing tube. All good news.
I guess he'll be like this for a while now. If anything changes I'll let you guys know.

Cheers T.
Mel just txt'd and said today is not a good day. He's having another CT scan, I imagine this will be quite tiring for him since he's awake.
So please if you get this in time please hold off till tomoorow any plans to visit.
If anything changes I'll let you guys know.

Pretty good results from the the CT scan with nothing too worrying there.
He's asleep now and the doctors have asked now to keep visitors to family only.
Looks like his SHOEI X-ELEVEN Kagayama (in red) did the trick.

Sean's much more responsive this morning and the Doctors say this is a good sign.
They expect to remove the ventilator this morning.
His dad's asked to hold off visiting Sean till 5-6pm tonight, Seans's very tired and visiting is a bit of a strain. Would be good to leave this to his closer friends today.
But feel free to call into the ICU to visit Mel and Sean's family anytime. Swiss chocolates were mentioned as an ideal gift.

Well he's talking to Mel now, just a bit. But small steps.
Apparently they left his contacts in a few days too long, before they noticed them, must have used the non tinted ones that day. I wonder how much of the grunting and nodding he's done over the last few days was "get my bloody contacts out"!
Sean's dad rang before to ask that we leave visiting to Saturday as he's going into surgery tomorrow for about 5 hours and he'll be in recovery till Friday.
He said feel free to show up anytime Saturday, but if it gets too much they may have to throttle back a bit on the visiting.

Latest info that Sean's dad has asked me to pass on to y'all.
"Good day yesterday, some whispered talking, all making sense. Still in ICU but probably into ortho ward tomorrow. Leg Doctor explained fractures and remedial approach - screws and plates and he was very reassuring - no problems anticipated but some risks - infection and clots. Goes to theatre about midday for 5-6 hours. Tomorrow will likely be a quiet one recovering. Expect him to pick up Saturday and welcome visitors in small numbers. Would love to to see you anytime but you might not see Sean. Thanks for your support. Merv"

Ok I have to do it, I tried to resist, but it was all too much.
Indeed, a special moment is Skeltars life.
