Default Thoughts and Prayers Please!

One of my best friends, Spencer, had a horrible mini bike accident this weekend and had to be flown directly from the scene to an Indianapolis hospital with severe head injury and facial trauma. I guess he was playing around on his jacked up mini-bike(without a helmet) and something went wrong. He was on life support for the first two days but is now conscious and starting to come around a bit. He needs as many good thoughts and prayers as he can get right now. He is also the manager of my local O'Reillys.
He is a fellow car enthusiast and has a 1996 Pontiac Sunfire that is just AWESOME. He has won many awards with his car.

Thank you BBMike!! Yes, life certainly can and will change in a heartbeat!! Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Like you and Space say "What if?"
Once I finish up my fuel pump issue tonight I will probably drive down there to stay with him for a bit and will probably go back down once I am done racing tomorrow night.

Thanks Tadd! He is such an active person and I know this laying around has got him agitated beyond belief now that he is conscious. Agitation is not something you want with a head injury.

Sorry to hear about your friend! Got you a Hail Mary coming your way. Remember to thank the Lord for all the blessings he has bestowed upon you, your friends and everyone on the MCF.
