Hey everyone. I was checking my myspace a couple minutes ago and came across this. One of my friends I have met is a freestyle motocrosser on the IFMA tour. He has had some unfortunate circumstances come to him as of late. I have never had to help someone in this situation but am willing to do anything needed. If anyone has some help in any way either advice or guidance I would apprecitae it. Feel free to contat me. Here is the e-mail I got:


Hey Everyone. I'm sure many of you know but i know there are many of you who don't know. My Girl friend Christi and I went riding last Tuesday at hard rock cycle park in Ocala,FL were she had a horrible accident. She crashed and broke many of the bones in her face, she lost and chipped most of her teeth, she split her lip in two, and she also broke her back and snapped her spinal cord. She is unfortunately going to be paralyzed from the chest down for the rest of her life. We need everyone to pray for her and help us do everything we can to help her recover. She is a strong girl and we are hoping she will recover well. I haven't gotten to talk to her yet because she is still sedated from her back surgery. I'm hoping to be able to see her and communicate with her soon. If you have any questions or if you would like to try and help Christi out in anyway or if you just have any ideas please contact me. Thank you all so much.

Got this from Dan....

Hey everyone im just posting to let everyone know thatg Christi is going into surgery today to repair all the fractures in her face, her lip, and they are putting in a feeding tube to her stomach. Im not sure yet if they are putting the trake in her neck or not but when i find out I will let everyone know. I also just wan to say that yesterday was the first time I had posted a bulletin about Christi's accident and I never could have imagined that I would have so many people send there prayers to her and I. I couldnt believe how many of you responded to this and I just want to say that I love all of you for helping me through this and I Christi and I couldnt do this without you all, you mean so much to us thank you thank you thank you. I will post again when I find more information out ok. be safe and God bless all of you.

Dan
