His Specialized helmet was cracked in the accident. He went through various stages of questioning and understanding. We took very funny minutes, which will be posted when appropriate. You will totally understand if you know Rob's sense of humour.

He is going to be seeing a "plastic surgeon" today. I plan on going back sometime to re-establish the connection with the wonderful (cute young) nurses and drs.

Many thanks to all those involved in his care. The lift from Milo was a godsend. I always knew Will was an awesome guy, but he confirmed it in close quarters. Wishing the best for Rob. 416 five too sevn o too sx svn.
Crap...thats a major bummer. I too have had the broken orbital and while I didn't require surgery it was a bugger none the less. As was mentioned the helmet surely saved him from a significantly worse injury. To whoever is going to stop by the hospital make sure to give him my best.
The other party involved in the crash walked away with a cut up finger and a mangled front wheel.
