Get Fuzzy down in Osoyoos
«

August 21, 2007, 05:56:30 PM »
John ( Get Fuzzy ) has crashed in Osoyoos.
Details as yet unknown of exactly where or how.
He is in Kelowna General Hospital with injuries that are serious but not life threatening. The hospital is only giving information to family at this time. A friend of John's is calling his brother this evening for an accurate update and I will post up here after he calls back.
As most of you know this is his second bad crash in less than a year and he had only returned to riding a couple of months ago on his DRZ 400SM and was on his way to Vancouver and eventually Sport Bike North West. Your thoughts and positive energy are most appreciated.
I have few details now, but will post more as I learn concrete information of his condition.

Thanks for posting up, Jim. I was shocked when I read your post - it seems like he just got back on the bike from WCRM I.V!!! I look forward to hearing more details as you get them

That's terrible. So hard to believe. He was one of the people who helped me a lot when I crashed 3 weeks ago. The old hockey duffle bag he gave me to pack all my wrecked bike gear in is sitting in my garage right now.
I really hope he is okay. I have to PM him about this.

Ugh, that's terrible, I had to check the date to make sure someone hadn't dredged up an old thread. Heal fast and get back on that horse.

Yeah, I'm sorry to hear this also. John was quite enthusiastic about the DRz...I hope he's OK. Hell of a run of bad luck.
I'll head out there when I get a chance, if he can have visitors--I can't make it for at least a week, though, probably longer.

No new news this morning other than a comment from the hospital that he will be there for several weeks. Ugh.

Thanks for the update anyway, Jim. Is there an address that we can send cards to?

Do you know whether he's able to watch movies/read books/read magazines?
A couple of weeks is a long time to be in the hospital, but I don't want to send DVDs if it would just be more "stuff" for his family to worry about.

Yikes! That's bad news for sure. What rotten luck! I've only met him a couple of times, but he's one of those instantly likable types. I wish you all the best and hope you have a speedy recovery John.

YIKES! What bad new. All my best thoughts going out to him.
I wonder what happened? Following him to Nelson last month he seems a very safe, careful rider.

I am sorry to hear this as well. I also looked at the date as I thought an old post had been dug up. I hope he recuperates quickly. Two accidents in a year is two too many. Heal quickly John.

It may not be great news - but it is positive news.
Send on my regards for a good recovery.
