  1. Yeah Lew, the ice on the road is why he (the 19-yr old) slid through and hit them. My cousin's say that is the worst area and should have a set of stop lights there for added safety.
  2. I THANK YOU ALL FOR THE Wishes AND PRAYERS! Update number 2....Today was a good day Both are officially out of any life threatening danger. My Uncle's brain bleed remains small and he is responding well to all commands so they anticipate that will heal on it's own in time. He got a Halo put on today for his neck fractures, a contraption that he will likely have to wear for months but it is a less invasive option then surgery...they will take a look at the fractures again in a few weeks to determine if the Halo is working, if not he will require surgery. He also has facial fractures that may require some plastic surgery in the future but won't be looked at until his neck has healed. They hope to take the breathing tube out tomorrow when they have confirmed the Halo is fitted properly - he needs the tube in while he is so heavily sedated to prevent choking while laying down. They also hope to have him out of ICU in a few days at which time people other then immediate family may be able to visit him. Jake (Cousin) is doing really well, he is still in quite a bit of pain but managing it really well - they plan to get him mobile very soon, if they didn't this afternoon after I left he should be up and walking tomorrow. They are continuing to monitor his spleen and digestive tract and if they are happy with his progress he may be able to go home soon. I plan to return to visit them on Wednesday so unless anything major happens tomorrow I will update again in a couple days. *pre post edit* My cousin called (one of my Uncle's 4 kids) and Jake got out of bed and went to see his dad! I'm super happy to hear this as they are both tuff buggers! I'm sure there was many a tear shed but my Uncle has been 'sleeping' since it happend. That call just made my night... Thanks again all!!!!!!!!!
  3. So I'm back from the hospital now... My cousin's spirit's are up but I tell you, his face is messed up. He’s covered in cuts and burses. Broken nose, black eyes, broken rib's but the Dr's are going to see if his spleen is going to heal without an operation. My uncle is still in ICU and I was not able to go and visit him. I was told he look just as bad as my cousin does but with a broken neck. Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers! Geoff
  4. Thank you all! I'm going to visit (if they let me in) in about an hour.

  6. Thanks guys. Kelly and Jacob Stewart will appreciate it.
  7. Hey folks. I'm not a praying kind of guy but I have from time to time. This crash involved my Uncle and Cousin. http://www.mykawartha.com/news/article/909256--car-crash-injures-eight It was my cousin's jack & jill and they are the ones in the cab. My uncle has broken his neck in a few places, he's still got bleeding on the brain. my cousin has a broken nose, rib's and a ruptured spleen. So if anyone can spare some prayers I'll be going to make a visit at St. Mike's tomorrow. Thanks......
