After reading this thread, I moved on and tryed to forget.But then memorylane got up with me.
A few years ago I lost a good freind during a dive,and I never had a chance to speak my mind to him,so if you have the chance do NOT let it go but take it.If not you will be sorry,I know I am.So be sure you never have a regread.
I still brings a tear while writing this.

Upon the wonders of the heavens I did cast my life;
this earth could have me no more.
Upon the breath of the wind, my time did pass;
the ripples fade out, standing motionless on the shore.
My wife and children watched sadly as I quietly drifted by;
Yet I could offer no more, than that which I had gave
For in them I do always live, and in them, my life ...
they did forever save.

Scott, my brother in law was in a terrible motorcycle accident in September. They didn't think he would survive due to the head injuries. Once they determined that he would live, they didn't think he would ever wake up and would remain in a persistent vegitative state.
He woke up last week after being in a coma for almost 4 months, and is recovering rapidly.
Keep a positive attitude. We will be thinking of you.

I have an update from one of my friend's daughters..
January 6th, 2006
Dad has been moved out of ICU into a physical therapy area. He will go through several weeks of very intensive rehab. We are hoping that the feeding tube will be removed soon as it drives Dad crazy
Dad is speaking more, but it will take time for his voice to become more audible and understandable.
Yesterday the EMT's from the scene visited Dad. They were absolutely amazed that he was even alive. They said that it was a miracle and that in their over 10 years each as EMT's they've never seen someone come back from as bad off as Dad was. One of the EMT's said that most people arriving to the hospital in that condition are pronounced dead on arrival, but for some reason every one felt that they had to just keep trying even for 45 minutes after they should have let him go. Thank God they did!!!! They said that when Dad did come back, they were surprised about how strong his heartbeat was and knew that he wanted to live. Dad shook the hands of the EMT's and said thank you to them in an emotional voice.
Thank you for your continued prayer and support.
