Timothy is no longer in the induced coma. He is just heavily sedated. They have taken out the breathing tube, and just has nasal prongs. They still haven't operated as bigger emergencies come in. The surgeons' want to do it in the next 10 hours. The nurse said he was more settled when we got there. He is going to get better, it will just take time.

I'm riding around NW Vietnam with 10 other riders who would like to pass on their best and positive wishes too.
So far, so good, it seems. Let's hope the news keeps getting better.
Rob and friends.

Grunty, you can't make a diagnosis from a keyboard. It seems your brain injury isn't your problem. It's your uncaring and insensitive personality. Grow up.

Spent a few hours with my boy today. He has been moved to a ward now. They still haven't operated, as more life threatening cases come in. Hopefully tomorrow. They said today that he has Post Traumatic Amnesia. He is confused and restless. He can't have visitors other than family and close friends. The best cure at the moment is sleep and keeping calm and quiet. It can last anything from a few days to weeks. When they say he can have visitors other than family, I will let you know. Ivan and I are both going in tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully he will have had surgery by then.

Hope he pulls through okay with his life and abilities unimpaired.
I've also 'woken up' in hospital days after an accident, but nowhere near as serious as this sounds.

Get up after a rest mate, we're all thinking and praying for your full recovery. Hope the truck driver is in hiding. He could have a rather large band of Timmy's brothers out looking for him. (:-))
Good weather, good woman, good road, good bike, good-bye!!

Had a bit of a temperature. He responded to orders to wiggle fingers and toes. I want my baby boy back

Best wishes for Tim and support for his family
I also have also woken up in hospital after nearly a week responding and conversing but in another world untill the swelling went down and apparently waited a bit of that time for an operation , its not that uncommon, and a full recovery is quite possible

Quote:Spent the day with Timothy. He had surgery on his elbow, and has scaffolding on it, as the dislocation is unstable. He is more alert, but confused sometimes. Didn't know who Aimee was at first, but 10 minutes later, did know. Asked him where I worked, knew that. Asked what Eloise did, he said "not much" (sorry darling).
He is still being tube fed, not sure how long. Will depend on his jaw. They will fix his eye socket in a couple of weeks. We will both be going in to see him tomorrow afternoon

about an hr ago...
Timothy had xrays on his elbow. They think that they will have to rebuild the joint. Probably next week and they will operate on his eye socket at the same time. Every day he seems to be more alert. He is talking, but can't hold a conversation. His brain is confused. (he wanted the microwaves turned off, as it was too hot). He was talking about going to the Rugby, & wanted Dad to go with him. Remembers friends from New Zealand, & school, & relatives. Still needs lots of sleep and rest. The hospital is saying that he will be going to rehab at Epworth after the next operation. If they were doing it in two weeks, he would have gone there between operations.
