Back from the hospital, Steve is currently at University Hospital on the 11th floor. He's in the OR recovery room. The had to repair a ruptured diaphram, he also had 5 broken ribs and a collapsed lung. They've inserted a tube through his nose to help his lung. Spoke to him for about 5 minutes as that's all they would allow. He realizes how lucky he is to still be with us and hopes to be up and about soon. The hospital is full so he's waiting on a room.
Haven't seen what's left of his car yet I've been told it's pretty bent up. We'll keep him in our thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.

Spoke with Larry (Cozmo a little while ago and filled him in. I'm sure Steve can't wait to see some more friendly faces tomorrow.

Best of luck and hope you heal fast. I wrecked in Jan '09 and I am still a mess. The car can be replaced, we cannot.

I visited Steve today and let him know that everyone here is thinking and praying for him on his way to a full recovery. He is very appreciative of all the friendships he has here, and he should hopefully be responding to these threads as soon as he is able to. He said the first thing he wanted was his phone so he could communicate with everyone, but they won't let him have that until he gets to his own room. He is in pretty rough shape, but he is still our Steve
