hes stable, still in the induced coma, thats all i know, we are sending people over to the junkyard to scout the bug to see what we can save, out main concern is motor, tranny, and the rear decklid, that is posted on page 2 with the pinstriping
Here is what Steve told me about Pete's condition: The doctors are still keeping Pete in an induced coma because when he starts to come to he starts jerking on tubes and stuff. His blood pressure also starts to elevate which causes more swelling of the Brain so they need to keep him down. He has two blood clots in his brain but they are starting to recede which of coarse is a good thing. He has no broken arms or legs but his collar bone, cheek and eye socket are broken . There are also numerous cuts to his face and both knees are badly bruised.
Melanie has been in to see him for very brief visits. I think Steve said that the doctor saw Pete at around 5:00 PM after which he gave Melanie a big thumbs-up.
Pete has made it through the first 24 hours with a slight improvement so that is a very encouraging thing. For the first time since this thing happened, I finally feel a little bit better. But please keep your thoughts and prayers coming. Steve was able to give Mel a check for $3000. I am so proud of all of you. I know that is just a start for us and we need to keep spreading the word.
It's my understanding that Steve is going to set up Melanie with a user name (Melanie) and password so she can access the forum. If she hasn't had a good cry yet she will after reading what all of you wonderful people have said about Pete. And let me be the first one to say Welcome Melanie. We all care about Pete very much and you are a lucky lady to be with such a great guy. He is going to be fine. Just give it time. With this many people pulling for you guys it can't fail.
this is the best news we ahve all heard, first check for $3000, much thanks to those that donated
Its great that Pete's doing better, thats a serious wreck. That guy can pinstripe like a m/f. I love the flat finish too, one of my favorite finishes
And Im amazed at how everyone can set aside their differences to come together for a guy they dont even know. Thats a great thing to see happen. Ill keep him in my prayers.
