Sam Green Updating From The UK.
« on: June 27, 2014, 08:36:19 AM »
Hi all, I am sitting here with my nice nurse who is helping me type this! Would really like to know what went a mess at the weekend if anyone knows the details. Bill, how's my bike looking? Not pretty, I'm sure. If anyone knows where my bomber jacket is, my glasses were in the left arm pocket next to the pen. Not sure if there is a way to have those sent here, but I am at VCU Health System in Richmond, Virginia in the main hospital on the 11th floor in room 414B if anyone would like to visit or call. My room number is (804) 649- 5866.

All the support means a great deal. I will try and keep you updated as best I can.

- Sam

Wow Sam, think yours was the most awaited post ever in HiPo!

Good on ya keeping up your spirits, means you still have a semi functional head and soul :)

Post a shot of those nurses when you can, it'll help us understand better who's taking care of you. We're worried you see, nothing else.

Get well fast dude.

I just spoke with Sam. You can tell he is still sedated (tough to keep a conversation going) but he sounds pretty good. He remembered my youngest son (who also spoke to him) which is a good sign.

Great to hear that you're on the mend, Sam! Some times you get the bull, and some times the bull gets you. That said, you rode that bull well.

Now let's see some "build" pictures of your nurses!

Good to see a post from you Sam. The team is lost without a strong leader. Will wait a bit longer for you to increase your strength before calling you directly.

Gee Sam, if you think the nurses are "lookers" now, wait 'till you get your glasses  ;D
The reason the bike fared better than you might have something to do with you throwing yourself under it to minimize the scratches  :-\
