Its not really that nasty though, just alot of road rash.

Yep that does the trick, His written account is excellent to. In one of the pictures there is a hospital data lable. Is the number at the top his social security number? If so there is enough info on display to create a nice little ID theft. Didn't the TL get nick named the widow maker?
His surgeon has done an excellent job to.

I still have road rash from when I was 16, almost 32 years ago. I thank God it was not even close to what happened to that fellow. I have feared just that sort of crash ever since and you wont find me riding without my gear. It makes me cringe just thinking about it.
