After hearing SeeR's story about him coming close to death, I thought I would show you guys the experience that I had with my cousin. I mentioned my cousin in his thread, but I didn't want to steal it, so I thought I would make one of my own, and I did briefly tell ya guys/girls what happened, but if you want more information on how bad he really was, and how much he has recovered, you can go to this website: http://www.webmediainc.com/54157PT/PeshtigoTimes.taf?function=detail&Layout1_uid2=12968#Comments After reading that, I will say proudly, I am glad he is my cousin and how strong he is mentally/physically. If he wasn't as strong mentally then he is, he probably wouldn't of made it. You don't have to read it, but it makes you think what life would be like without the things we have now, like walking, eye sight.. ect. You don't have to read it, but I would really appreciate you to read it, its a VERY good story, and even though I'm his cousin, it still makes me VERY impressed on how far he really got, compared to where he started. Its pretty long, so sit back and read it if you would like. I just wanted to tell you to PLEASE becareful when riding, thats all I ask of you, PLEASE. I don't think NOBODY or ANY family deserves to go through what we had to go through, so PLEASE BECAREFUL while riding.

It was exactly one year since his accident at approximately 4:34PM (Cental time) on Jan 29th 2005.

The story says that his brother his Brian, but that was a mistake, its Ryan, NOT Brian.

Thanks... he's actually doing really good. He is walking without a cane now, and can walk as far as he want but sometimes has to hold onto the wall. His leg is coming back, but his arm is on the slower side, which means... it's not coming back so good. The main thing that were worried about is his eye sight... That's not so hot either. He did just go to the doctor to see if he would be able to drive and they said yes, so my aunt, which is his mom, brought him to an empty parking lot and he couldn't see worth crap, but maybe that will just come. He can move his left hand as much as he wants to... but it takes some time and he has to think about it. He has to look at it and think about it, so it's not normal yet... but its coming along... thank God! So... he's doing pretty good... but then again... could be better.
