Update on "THCi"

[THCi Nathan's Mom]

Hi Everyone,
First off thanks to Ade for sending me the link to view the posts here.
THANKS for all the GWS messages!
We all need your prayers right now.

Nathan is still in a critical condition but not life threatening.
He has several injuries including 3 separate fractures to his spine, fractures to his skull fractured clavicall and bruising to his lungs.
The hospital are keeping him sedated and imobolised.
The pressures in his head are giving them some concern as they are fluctuating a lot , his temperature as shot up so there may be some infection bloods have been taken to check this out but as was explained to us it takes 2/3 days to get the results, he has been on a standard antibiotic since Friday but depending on the results may need that changing.
He has undergone so many scans he will be glowing in the dark, as I write this he is undergoing yet another one as his pressures have risen dangerously high over night they can't find the cause to this just yet and thats worrying.

I will try to come in here every couple of days or so to keep you updated as I know he has a lot of friends on here.

I wish to thank one friend in particular and thats Mat...
Mat you went that extra mile in looking after Nathan on Friday and we will be forever grateful to you!

There is one thing that i would like to point out here and thats Nathan was not complacent on this road as to the best of my knowledge it was not a road he had used before, I have always told my kids to treat any and every road EVEN the one they live in as though they have never traveled on it before, you never know what dangers are hidden around the corner!

Colin thanks for letting everyone know about Nathan, been a long time since we met but feel free to call on us with Mat.
Nathan will be in the hospital for some time so if you wish to visit just let us know and you will be more than welcome.

One last thing I will say before I sign off my novel LOL
We his parents are going through hell as is his sister Anna but at least we know his injuries were caused by something he loved!
Nathan worships his bikes and after his last accident we didn't think he would ride again but well hes a fighter and know that as soon as hes well he will want to know about his bike and whats happened to the new bike he was supposed to pick up on Saturday...
this may all be a bit of a jumble but well my brain seems to have gone on vacation to my left boot right now.
There is more that I would like to say but think theres enough here right now those that know me will tell you I can talk for the UK LOL if anyone would like oour address ask Ade and he will give it to you or if you would like the hospital details leave me a message and I will let you have it ... Nathan and Ade have been mates since they were about 3 or 4 .. sorry rambling now LOL

Thanks again to all
BE SAFE
BE AWARE
WATCH OUT FOR THOSE 4 WHEELERS

Tracy X Biker Chick lol

Sounds like a nasty crash, I really hope he gets through allright, Makes me realise how lucky I am, 2 spills and not even a broken finger.

Good Luck.

I'm sure he'll be fine - it's amazing what the human body can cope with and bounce back from.

All the best

Thanks for the update Tracy, and welcome to the forums. Just wish it was under better circumstances.

You know where I am if you need anything.

[Finglonga]

Thanks for the update Tracy, They kept me sedated for 9 days with my accident. It apparently speeds up healing, I know you are all going through hell at the moment, My parents did when I was sedated and until they knew I was going to be ok. Nobody knows how hard it can be until they have been in the situation.

As said he sounds like fighter and we all hope he makes a complete recovery. When he is alert pass on our good wishes as he won't remember much while under the influence of all those drugs (been there, done that, got the T-shirt).

...and to his Mum....... remember to look after yourself at this worrying time too.

[stinkwheel]

It's good to know that despite the bad press the NHS gets, the trauma and high dependancy teams are all from the top shelf.

He's in good hands.

Wishing you all the best.

Thanks for the update. Very pleased to know it's not life threatening.

Sounds like he's in great hands and i'm sure he'll make a full recovery.

[Ariel Badger]

Let us hope he gets well soon. He is lucky to have such a supportive mother as you Tracy. Keep the faith.

Im not quite sure of the details, but from what matt tells me, he may well have saved Naths life, as Nath was choking on his own blood.

I think matt got his airway clear and got him on his side in the recovery position before emergency services arrived.

I hope I have someone as quick thinking on hand if I ever have a serious accident.

No thanks go to the policeman who only seemed interested in wanting to pin blame to an exaggerated extent, and giving an anti bikes lecture.

Not really the time and place, while still at the scene, while matt was still in shock and didnt know how nath was gonna be.

Also no thanks to first few cars who just drove past when matt tried to flag them down.

Its true Nath is a fighter, Matt said it took 5 of them to hold him down when they were trying to treat him and he wanted to get up.

That spirit should help him recover, I would have thought.

Hi

Thanks for letting us know, and if we can help then let us know (I work in Kingswinford so can get to the hospital fairly easily).

Presume the sedation is also to stop him moving to agravate the spine.

All the best

My thoughts are with you Nath's mum - I'm sure your good attitude towards the situation will help his continued recovery .

[Annabella]

Thank you for letting us know how Nath is. It must be so difficult for you all and our thoughts are with you.

Like Keith, I'm another local person so anything we can help with please ask.
