Anyone near Provo hospital in Utah?

My nephew that's like a son to
Me had a bad bike accident and destroyed his wrist and about tore his foot off

He worked with me for many years and went out there for school

I would be more than great full if someone close by stopped in to say hi and tell him unc loves him

I have talked to him but he feels pretty alone out there and a visit would make him smile for sure

He had surgery last night and has at least one more coming up

If someone can call me and I will give room number

He will be in there prob 2 more days

[davegillfishing]

Dirt bike. Landed hard and lack of experience threw him off into loose gravel

Rash and shattered wrist along with about torn off ankle

Thanks for the prayers
It means a lot

I'm pretty upset and helpless feeling

I want to be by his side

He is well taken care if by girlfriend and family though

Sucks to see he him like that, but he is young and should recover just fine. If you talk to him tell I said hi and I am wishing the best for him.

2 things: 1. Our thoughts and prayers for him, that is no good. 2. John Olson is a quality man. Awesome thing to do John, that's good karma!!!!!

Hope your nephew heals up OK.

Over the years I've had ATC's, dirt bikes, sand rails, but haven't been on a dirt bike in years. I was thinking about getting another, but the pics have me second-guessing my decision. Hopefully I'm wiser and more careful in my, um, more advanced years.....
