Good morning 'son' hope you managed to get some sleep.
We know how hard it is to sleep when all the nurses keep coming in to check this and check that all night throu... and we know that they dont do it quietly at all. Thinking of you mate. 'Maaaaaaaaaaaaa'

speedygirl and Donna - Thanks so much for all the updates. Much appreciated.

Chatted to Speedygirl, and I was going to wait till Monday, but as they say, sooner the better.

I was thinking of organising a bit of a money pool that we can do to help Inline and Mrs Inline for the future. Im in for $50.

Ways of donating are yet to be decided, but I was thinking of opening a separate bank account and making the number availible for those that wish to deposit something to help out. Anyone with any better ideas?

Might start a new thread so everyone can see

Just got to read this thread, stunned.
John and Donna, my sincere best wishes to you both, I have some experience in dealing with ACC and how to achieve things, if you want any help please ask. There is often more available than people realise, if you have any problems just PM.
John, you are known as a tough bugger, stay that way.
respect and regards
Mack

As it hasn't been specifically suggested yet, I am willing to put together a 'care package' for John to be sent down THIS FRIDAY 10/11/06.
Anyone in the Auckland region who has something they want to send, think about it carefully. We don't want to overload either John or the staff, I have spoken to him this morning and suggested 'audio books', he was keen on the idea. He cannot handle holding books and magazines at present so this seemed like a good solution. He said he likes historical, science fiction, fantasy, novels etc.
If anyone has any other ideas, bring it on.
PM me for details of address, lets make it happen.

Gutted Inline.........I am absolutley gutted, no shit I had tears in my eyes and lead in my stomach.
Need help with pain management and the back? DMNTD and myself can help with the 'headworx'.
Hope you like visitors John

a phone call will not be enough.

Dear Inline and family

we are so shocked to hear this, it is not often that something this bad happens so close to home, and our thoughts are with you.

Lots of love, Cibby and Lady Bugjuice.

**Scorpygirl** · 4th November 2006, 10:22

Hi IL4

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I hope it all goes well with the healing.

Kia kaha, Kia toha, kia manawanui.

Messages from Placidfemme and also MadDuck.

"Both send their best wishes and their thoughts are with you".

MadDuck is in Taupo all weekend, so she will post when she gets back to work.
Placidfemme has no internet connection at home except at work.
So she too will read all and post on Monday.

I spoke briefly to John and to Donna this morning.
The consultant was just arriving, so the convo with Donna was cut short.
Donna is heading back to New Plymouth on Monday due to work committments.
So all you gals and guys in Chch and surrounding areas need to keep going to visit John to keep him company and to keep his spirits up.

I saw the first post in this thread,and then a couple of nights off the computer and busy days where I can't follow a thread of get well wishes....and then this morning I find something truely nasty has happened,I've had to go back through the whole thread to find out what actualy has happened to Inline.Maybe someone could put Speedygirls list of what his injuries actually are on the first post so it's not buried on page 3 where no one can find it.

I've had some big tumbles off road,and most who have been off road have too.But sometimes I think about it,and realise how close to a real serious injury I was....tiz luck,and sometimes we have used today's offered amount.I hope all goes well with the speedy recovery John,and remember to stay positive,the mind is your most powerful healing tool.
