Hi boys and girls.

Thought I'd give an update on my condition.I had a xray last friday which showed no movement of the fractured bone(L1 vertebrae).This bone was cracked right through but not displaced and the T7,T9,T10 have wedge fractures which arent to serious.:Kat00:

I've been lying flat on my back for 2 weeks and have 2 to go.They cant get a bed for me at Wollongong so I have to stay here in Canberra until healed.
Thanks heaps to all of you for well wishes and offers of help,it is greatly appreciated.

Looking forward to a ride and tinkering with my bikes.:ninja:
Hope to be fit to race at the last St George round ot OP in September.:ayyy:

So far only have some pics of bruises.

Most injuries were internal like the vertebrae and 2 semi collapsed lungs which were badly bruised too.

I asked for the xrays and scans,but they wont give them to me until I leave the hospital.

4 weeks on your back ? You slut, you must be as loose as Paris Hilton by now :lmao:


J/K,, heal fast well and true mate. Shame they cant get you a bed closer to home too. Must be hard on family that, and suprises me they 'cant find a bed'..

Can you send Jessica Alba around to suck my finger.:drool:

That should speed up the recovery or at least the heart rate.

Well 4 weeks have dragged by and I'm due to get out this saturday.

They are going to fit me with a back brace on friday then have me get out of bed and stand for the first time.Apparently there's a good chance I'll pass out or vomit.Yay.:hatter:

The young bloke who was in the bed next to me said it didn't feel like his legs and he was only laid up for one and a half weeks.

See you at the track soon.:ayyy:

i think MA insurance only covers permanent injuries and losses: ie permanently wheelchair bound or loss of limb. That's why i have seperate insurance insurance. they cover for a set payment per week regardless of income level if i can't work for any inujury-related reason, not as much as my income, but it would make the difference between losing the house and not.

seriously i hope you r doing OK both in body and in family-spirit. I can't help around your house seeing we are 4 hours away, but i imagine if you need someone to mow the lawn and such, some rat may help...

keep perving on the nurses? `)
