Mike's wife communicated today. He's improving but has a ways to go yet.
Terrible sad news; stay tough Mikey.Mikey and his friend Peter rode with us at the Ozarks Rally May 4-7. Unfortunately Mikey went wide on a corner and went over in gravel, taking a blow to his chest. He was sitting up and talking while waiting for the ambulance. He was transported to Mountain View AR hospital where they stated he had 5 broken ribs. Was then sent on to a regional Hospital in Batesville AR where he was released late the next day. (a Saturday)
With bikes loaded on the trailer, Peter started driving them homewards Sunday morning, after stopping for a night with friends near Kansas City Mike was feeling and looking quite sick, he was admitted to a hospital there. Diagnosed with 6 broken ribs and a collapsed lung they operated. After a couple days recovery he flew home Sunday the 14th. He was admitted to a hospital ICU this morning (Wednesday) with pneumonia and an infection. Peter Says he is in serious condition.
Here's for a quick and complete recovery!
@Mikey
Glad your still here to annoy your better half….I forgot she did contact you I guess she's a keeper
Thanks guys for all your well wishes !!!!!!!
After 36 years of wedded bliss she's pretty used to me and my antics usually I get sick not hurt but the body don't flex as much as it used too
I'm taking it pretty easy but I did get 1/2 the garden planted today just to do something
Pain meds are Tylenol as I don't like the wacky pain pills out there and the bad thing is I get beered out after only a couple
I'm retired
Thanks for the fixI have no idea how I double posted that one
I can't type that fast
I did PM him today.He's right thereView attachment 244727
Which Prine is that from? I started drinking "Handsome Johnnies" after "When I get to Heaven", CheersTake it slow and easy, Mikey, don't overdo anything. Wishing you a speedy recovery, especially being the guy with John Prine lyrics in his byline!
I know a guy that's got a lot to lose.
He's a pretty nice fellow but he's kind of confused.
He's got muscles in his head that ain't never been used.
Thinks he own half of this town.
From one Mikey to another, get well!
That's "That's the Way That the World Goes 'Round" (aka The "Happy Enchilada" song) from his "Bruised Orange" album.Which Prine is that from? I started drinking "Handsome Johnnies" after "When I get to Heaven", Cheers
