Quick update on the man: John had surgery to repair and plate the damaged vertebrae in his back at QMC last week. When I saw him on Friday, the surgery had gone well but he was obviously hurting. It's easy to overlook the fact that he also broke four ribs and his collar bone, so the poor guy has really been in the wars. Thats said he was in good spirits, and he is expecting to get home today! Good on yer mate. |
