barend Posted May 14, 2010 #83 Posted May 14, 2010 Lousy timing Earl! You should've done that when you had three feet of snow on the ground, wouldn't have had to shovel and be able to ride this summer. Would've been even better if you'd stayed on your feet. Hope you get over this soon. Take care.

skydoc_17 Posted May 14, 2010 Author #88 Posted May 14, 2010 Hi VR.ORG members, It's Jean, Earl's wife again. Earl has been scheduled for sugary first thing Monday Morning! It seems he really screwed his back up and the doctors don't want to wait. They said the rupture had put a tremendous amount of pressure on his spinal cord. He will be staying in the hospital for a few days after the operation. I am grateful he will not be in pain any more, but concerned about the sugary and the length of time they want to keep him in the hospital. Does staying in the hospital after this type of sugary sound normal? I thought this type of operation was usually an in and out thing? I am very worried. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers, Earl is such an active person, this has been very hard on him. He has been very touched by your comments. Please continue to pray for him, Jean
RandyR Posted May 15, 2010 #89 Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks for the update Jean. I think about Earl daily and wish him a speedy recovery. Others will have to comment on back injuries and operations...
Yammer Dan Posted May 15, 2010 #90 Posted May 15, 2010 Probally just want to make sure things go right Jean. Tell him good luck with it AND TAKE IT EASY!!!

BIG TOM Posted May 15, 2010 #92 Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks for the update Jean. I pray that all goes well and will continue to pray for a speedy recovery......tell Earl we miss him on the site....
Marcarl Posted May 15, 2010 #93 Posted May 15, 2010 Got you covered as well,,,, take it easy,,, give it time and lots of prayer from you,,,, then our prayers will work much better
ronhenry4 Posted May 15, 2010 #94 Posted May 15, 2010 Hello to all the VentureRider Members, This is Jean, Earl's wife. Earl injured his back a few weeks ago while working on a motorcycle for one of the members of the site. We had a really bad rain Friday, May 7th and he fell down the front porch stairs during the storm. I took him for a MRI on Monday, May 10th and he has ruptured a disk between L4 and L5 in his back. He is in a lot of pain and on some heavy duty pain meds. right now. If he is supplying parts for you, please be patient with him as he is bed ridden right now. I will be checking his emails daily, and will try my best to make sure that parts he has ordered for anyone are shipped in a timely manner. At this time, he is not able to sit up at the computer, but I will relay questions to him and return answers as they come. Everything in the classifieds for sale will be shipped until supplies run out. We have plenty of the batteries for the First Gens. and Second Gens. as well as most of the other items. We are hoping he will have a corrective surgery in the next few weeks and he will be back on his feet very soon. I have been following the problem with the Clutch Spring and as soon as the new springs arrive I will do my best to ship everyone a new spring as soon as I get them. If your bike is at Earl's shop for repairs, please contact me and I will let you know where he is in the repair process. We are both very sorry for this disruption in the services he provides, and I will do my best to continue to be of service to the members of this site. Your thoughts and prayers would be most helpful during this time, He so enjoys the friendships he had made on this site. It breaks my heart to see him in such pain, and to be deprived of the joy he receives from helping the members of this site. Please take a moment and say a prayer for him, I am so worried. Jean Toughts and prayers are on the way !! good luck in the recovery process. Ron
BuckShot Posted May 15, 2010 #95 Posted May 15, 2010 Prayer's being sent--Hope for a speedy recovery. Both of you take care.
KarlS Posted May 15, 2010 #96 Posted May 15, 2010 I was only in the hospital 5 days this last time. As soon as they see you can get up and down ok they get you out of there. And they will do it sooner knowing there is someone at home to take care of him. I would of got out a day earlier if I would of had someone at home to help. But it wasn't worth getting married for one day less in hospital. LOL. But I had visiting Nurses everyday. See you both in the morning, should be around 9:00am.
