Damn, buddy. Sucks, but I am relieved to hear that you are fine. And your mental attitude does the trick.

I was in a similar circumstance coming home from 20+ hours of playing on St. Pat's. We started out in a TV studio at 4:30 AM and until almost 1:00 AM the next morning we were either playing, driving to the next gig, setting up, or breaking down. By the end of the day I was completely exhausted, and foolishly decided to drive home. I fell asleep at the wheel, drove down an embankment, smashed head on into a retaining wall, shot up in the air and travelled about 15 yards, came down on the rear end, bounced up in the air and then nosed in. Spent a day or so in the hospital, but luckily came out OK. I was a hurting folk singer for a month. Like you, no one including the deputies can believe I survived. I guess we have something left to do, eh?

You have the best therapy with Emily and the music. But pay very close attention and devotion to the therapy. I have had a very severe bone injury from my days as a hard hat diver. They take time and work to heal. You will get discouraged, but stay at it.

I am but a half hour away, if you need anything. Things are starting to slow down a bit (finally), and I can be there quickly.

All the best,

Mick
