I received an email just moments ago regarding our friend, Morti's dad, Dave Morton, as follows:

This is Dave's mother.  Dave was in a high speed motorcycle accident 7/9/12.  We are praising the Lord daily for His mercies and miracles.  Dave is in trauma Med/surg unit at Mercy San Juan Hospital in Carmichael, CA.  He is slowly healing and probably will be able to come home soon.  He has factures in all four limbs is going to need lots of therapies and tender loving care.  He obtained no head injuries, but has multiple internal injuries, but doing good.  You may send him cards to David Morton c/o Nancy Morton, po box 3834, Carson City, NV 89702.  He doesn't have access to computer at this time, but soon should be able to use laptop and read emails.

Wondered where Dave had got to.

Bad news. Hope you heal quick Dave. Our thoughts are with you.

Yes I was wondering where our Dave had got to as well.

Thanks for letting us know Art

All the best to Dave and his family at this time. Get better soon my friend.

Very sorry to hear of your plight Dave, get well soon buddy. 

Ouch!!!! So sorry to hear about that Dave. and here I was thinking you were enjoying your vacation   
Hope you have a speedy recovery my friend.

Yes, good news, bad news, finally we prefer to keep the good news part. Hope Dave will quickly recover and tell us his bad adventure by himself.

thanks, mates. i don't remember anything of the accident except for what they tell me, which isn't much, at this point. I do know that the "high speed" bit either had to come from the other driver or from my Mum, since I'm always very careful (even paranoid) about my speed. Still hurts to type, and I want to take things slow at first, so I'll check in later.

One phrase comes to mind...Dragon Naturally Speaking!  OK...the Windows VR also works quite nicely for me!!

At any rate (no pun) take your time ol bud!! Things will fall into place in due time!!

- Best -  

funny thing! Mum actually got the app for the new computer! (Why I need a NEW computer is beyond me)  Sadly, though, I'll be a few more weeks before I can get home to use it.

Good to hear from you Dave, hope you recover soon, take it easy and don't rush things 

lol hard to rush things when bound to a bed, but i'm taking things as slow as i can for now.

Dave,
  Had a cousin in a comma for about a month so you're a step ahead of him.  Wish you the best and hope you're up and about soon.

With any luck, I should be out of the hospital by the end of the week. Lord knows that's what i'm working toward.

Hope you have a pretty nurse to assist you in there, but then again if you did you would not be hoping to get out anytime soon 

Discharged from hospital today
