Sweetnothing Posted October 31, 2011 #157 Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks for the update Don! Rose...we will continue to keep Dan (and Ponch) in our thoughts and prayers...it will take time, but I belive he will fight this when he can! He'll be ok! If there is anything we can do please let us know! We are all here for ya!
Marcarl Posted October 31, 2011 #158 Posted October 31, 2011 Reading this thread everyday, as well as the one for Ponch. Constantly asking for improvement and healing and support for the families. Wishing that somehow some of us could take over the vigil for a time, but that just isn't possible, but we can send our care and love.

That goes for me as well I really hope and pray that Dano comes through this and the sooner the better.
tbbrider Posted November 1, 2011 #161 Posted November 1, 2011 Prayers sent,and i pray for a speedy recovery
Bummer Posted November 1, 2011 #162 Posted November 1, 2011 Irene went to the hospital and took Rosie a care package. Trivial stuff that Irene learned was actually pretty useful when she was sitting next to me in a nearby room a few years back. Rose was happy for the company. Unfortunately I couldn't go. I'm nursing a nasty cold and don't want to take a chance of passing it along. A man found Dan, not sure if he actually saw it happen. Two women worked on him, one was a nurse. They didn't have to restart him (still gurgling), just keep him going until the ambulance could get there (a good thing). He's a bruise from the waist up, so they're keeping him heavily sedated. His hands, back, and face took the biggest hit. They tried to take him off the ventilator on Sunday but had no luck. They got him off on Monday, though they didn't know if he'd have to go back on. The less time on ventilation, the less chance of pneumonia. All in all the prognosis seems good. Right now they're saying he'll only need one surgery. Word is the deer slid 75 feet. Rose is hoping to mount the head on the wall once she finds out what happened to it. The bike started right up when they went to move it. Seems Ventures and their riders are a pretty tough lot. Dan's still in critical condition but it could have been a lot worse. We will be keeping an eye on them and will post as we get more information. Cards can be sent to: Dan Obert Room 5206 Methodist Hospital 1701 Senate Boulevard Indianapolis, IN 46202
muffinman Posted November 1, 2011 #163 Posted November 1, 2011 Thanks for the update Bummer and tell Irene thanks for taking the time to sit with Rose. Mini and I are keeping Dan and Rose in out prayers. Jeff
CaptainJoe Posted November 1, 2011 #164 Posted November 1, 2011 Penny put him on the prayer chain at church this past Sunday. Hopefully this will speed the healing process up...
nance56 Posted November 1, 2011 #166 Posted November 1, 2011 Thanks Irene for looking out for Rose. Big thanks for letting us know how things are progressing. We appreciate the update. Thanks Bummer.
Freebird Posted November 1, 2011 Author #167 Posted November 1, 2011 Some positive news from Rose today. Please keep those prayers coming. Dan said his first word today...Obert What a wonderful day it is with the sun shining. Breathing somewhat on his own. Vent tube was taken out yesterday. Also using o2 face tent to help with breathing.
BuckShot Posted November 1, 2011 #169 Posted November 1, 2011 Great news from Bummer and Freebird. Thanks so much for the updates and for stopping to see Rose. Thoughts and prayer's daily for everyone. Gil, Gail and Lance
b2dad Posted November 2, 2011 #170 Posted November 2, 2011 Sending card to Dan and Rose. Still keeping you guys in our prayers. Thanks everyone for the updates Don and Patti
mm482 Posted November 2, 2011 #171 Posted November 2, 2011 Great news, we will still be praying Dan and Rose. Earl:thumbsup2:
Bummer Posted November 3, 2011 #172 Posted November 3, 2011 Nothing new to report from yesterday's visit. Irene took Rose a Squealer's pulled pork sandwich and half a rack of baby back ribs to dangle in front of Dan. (We'll get him out of that bed yet.) Rose had visitors when Irene got there and the Social Worker got there shortly after, so none of the visitors got to stay. All we know is he's still moving in the right direction. More in a couple of days.
waterbug Posted November 4, 2011 #173 Posted November 4, 2011 If I can fit it in I was going to try to swing by and give Rose a visit is there anything that we could bring her maybe? Thanks for any info
Bummer Posted November 5, 2011 #174 Posted November 5, 2011 Irene suggested taking her the name of the other woman who worked on Dan, if you can get it. Rose would like to know. As for stuff, she's pretty well set up. They're popular with the kids at Triton Central High School. Everybody's been taking care of 'em. She even has a cooler. Just visiting would probably be plenty.
Squidley Posted November 5, 2011 #175 Posted November 5, 2011 Steve, Thanks to you and Irene for keeping us updated, it's great news hearing that he is progressing. We are all looking forward to seeing him back home where he belongs
