Cyclist Gets Knocked Down & Run Over By A Car

[Zahraauk]

He can wiggle toes and lift one leg which is a good thing.
He's off trauma care and on 'normal' care.
He's bloody hysterical when he morphine kicks in we all get the most random texts.
When thmorphine wears off I think he gets a bit down But still mending.

My brother-in-law had his pelvis crushed by a farm tanker in a freak cycling accident a few years ago. He had pulled over onto the grass verge of a remote single-track lane to let the tanker pass, failed to unclip .....and fell between the wheels. He was helicoptered to a trauma unit 35 miles away and very nearly died, but made a remarkable recovery. You would never know, apart from his very slight limp. He was pretty dosed up on morphine for a while and found the withdrawal symptoms to be difficult , but he toughed it out and now he's absolutely fine.

Very best wishes to your colleague.
