My friend got into a bike accident!!!

[gonelifting]

Motorcycle. I can`t believe this is happening! His ex girlfriend messed up her knee a few days ago. She had to go to the hospital, she`ll be alright. Now he crashes into a tree or a pole with his motorcycle. He broke his femur and has a collapsed lung. He`s in ICU for the next few days. He apparently was found on the road unconsious.

This is getting ridiculous. Within 2 weeks I`m at someone`s funeral, My cousin almost dies and his life is changed forever, my uncle is in the hospital losing his life because he refuses kidney dialyses, now this happens!

Now instead of 2 hospitals, I`m going to THREE different hospitals to visit people. WTF????????????


This is all a bad dream!

god bless him, it could have been much worse. I'm still tramautized about bikes after seeing a guy crash right infront me and die on the spot.

How is your nephew/cousin(?) doing?

Sorry to hear it GL. I'll try to put in a good word for you with the man upstairs.

Njuice, how did the dude you saw get in a crash? I only ask because I ride too, and I want to be able to learn from others' mistakes.

 

[Deterass]

I hope he's ok orb.

he was drunk. it was like 3am and we had saw the same guy trying to start his bike back at the bar, we were like someone better stop him, you could tell he was blasted. He refused and took off, 5 mins later we see him lose control somehow and fly off the bike, i couldnt tell how it happened as we were pretty far away, but when we got to him one other car had stopped and there was a stream of blood flowing from his helmet, i read in the newspaper the next day he died..most people will say he was a idiot for riding drunk but it still was very sad.

 

[onerepmaximum]

Damn. Thanks for posting up. Like I said, if I can learn from what other people do wrong, maybe I won't make the same mistake. I already plan not to make that mistake though.

 

[Deterass]

Tacky.

Yes,i replied to quick.

Gonelifting is always joking around and i didnt pay attention to how serious he was.

 

[Bebe Girl]

AWW sorry to hear! My prayers are with you!=)

my brother's good friend died on a bike wasn't even his fault, car just didn't see him and it was over.

I'm sure things will get better soon!

I second ORMs sentiment.

 

[Smurfy]

Im sorry to hear about these tragedies, GL. Hope all works out for the best

Thanks everyone. I feel like I`m the victim here and that`s being very selfish. What about the poor people in the hospital? I`m still healthy and they`re all banged up and I`m the one complaining! lol It`s just a lot of stuff happening at one time, you can`t prepare for it. Seriously, how the hell do you go to 3 different hospitals to visit people?


My cousin`s son is out of critical stage. They found out a few days ago that he laso has a broken arm and broken fingers and toes. lol He`s that bad that they did`nt even concern themselves with those things for the first week or two. He can hear people talking and tries to say stuff but it`s still a little bit of a struggle.

He`s had numerous surgeries and is recovering better than the DRs thought he would, but he`ll never be the same. He seems to respond to light flashed in his face but they think he may only have control over one eye.

I`m not sure if they`re doing reconstructive surgery yet until they wait for everything else to "heal" or get worked on, such as his brain or what not.

I hope he pulls through this with flying colors. HE`S an awesome kid, I can`t explain how great he and his whole family is!!! It should`nt have happened!!!

 

[Werd]

So sorry to hear.... There are no easy answers. It's all just "life".

Thinking good thoughts, wishing strength, peace and comfort for you all.

I second ORMs sentiment.

I nominate you for having the best avatar in EF history.

[gonelifting]

Damn, Just found out more info... broken ribs, cracked vertabrae added on to collapsed lung and broken leg. This the motorcycle accident guy. lol Keeping track of all this is hard. OMG!

A car cut him off and he lost control and flew off the bike landing under a car. I don`t have the details if the car stopped to help because as I understand it, he was "found" on the road.

It just goes to show, no matter how careful YOU are, there are always OTHER people/drivers that can injure you. I hear it all the time, cars don`t respect motorcycle riders like they should. They act as if you`re not there. (I don`t ride myself)

I feel your pain Gonelifting. In 1998 I was in a terrible motorcycle accident myself. I was in a comma for 2 weeks. I had to get 4cm of my brain removed because of my brain swelling. I also had to get 2 plates and 16 screws inserted into my arm because of the double compound fracture I received in my left arm. So I can speak from experience. I'M SORRY BRO
