It's so hard to hear that anyone has been hurt on a motorcycle...let alone someone from our own VR family...Our thoughts and Prayers are being sent everday for the family.

We pray that you will have the strength to get through this. We are sending some Angels to watch over you... . Praying for a full and speedy recovery. Big Tom and Taters

Thanks for the update, since we wont have internet connection at Vogel, it would be great if you could give us a call with updates if at all possible. We will keep Ponch and Lil Bit in our prayers as long as it takes....

I would like to join the chorus of "yaaaaaa". I got to tell you it cracked me up about him giving "1/2 of the peace sign" I can only imagine it being one finger...and as feisty as Ponch seems to be, I think I may know which one!!!!!

My thoughts exactly when I read that info....Ponch has never struck me as being a hippie lover...

Regardless of that progress is progress so let's all keep yapping at the Man upstairs to speed Ponch's recovery.

Boomer....whose favorite sayin is "Can ya see which finger I'm waving at ya?".....

Being I am on the road this week I havnt been able to post but have read all the news. My Mom has 2 prayers groups praying for his recovery and for the family. Our family here is doing a great deal of praying and I think it's working. Prayers will continue, David is a wonderful person.

[gunkylump]

Just got off the phone with Monkey Boy and we have some more good news.

 

 

After lunch today they started to wean David off the pain meds, probably to start to get him to be more awake as pain has a tendency to wake you up. He is sleeping on his own though, so the sedation is wearing off which is what they want. The swelling is continuing to go down on his brain. He is understanding what is being asked of him, they asked for a thumbs up and he gave them half a one. Same thing when asked for a peace sign, half of one, he's obviously still weak.

 

When they wipe him off he is squinting his eyes, probably from pain, but his motor skills are there and working. They have him on low doses of pain meds right now. Kathy mentioned that his face is starting to come back to normal as the swelling is starting to go down.

 

Later in this afternoon after one of his sleeping spells he woke back up and tried to grab the tubes and pull them out of his mouth. Feisty bugger he is, he also looked directly at Kathy and Shannon, they waved at him and he waved back, so he recognizes them. This is great news as hopefully he doesn't have any amnesia.

 

I am cautiously optimistic and hope that he continues to make strides in a positive direction. Keep in mind he is no where's near where he needs to be, but seems to be improving by the day. If our power in numbers prayers are working then lets keep it up. I am very excited about this and my only wish is to get him where he can have some visitors and go and see him

OUR GOOD FRIEND DAVID IS GOING TO "SLAY HIS GOLIATH". With the strength that David has inside, and with the efforts of his family and friends, he will do it! Carry on my friend, get stronger each and every day. We're all pulling for you.
