Popular Post Helmutt Posted March 1, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Here's a link to his GoFundMe account so anyone/everyone can help Travis get the physical therapy needed to continue on his path to recovery. For those that don't know, he was in a severe motorcycle accident last July when an inattentive driver pulled out in front of him. He's truly lucky to be alive with all the trauma and injury he's suffered, but he lacks funding to pursue the treatment he needs and continue improving his quality of life, especially now that he's an expecting father. I posted the GoFundMe link in his thread, but fear it will get buried as it's a long read, and folks may miss the opportunity to help a fellow OhioRider in need. Those of you on Facebook and Twitter, please link this account up to expand efforts as far as we can. Please give what you can, it's much appreciated. https://www.gofundme.com/9xrvf6t9 And here's a link to his thread... https://ohioriders.net/index.php?/topic/108392-happy-to-be-alive/ Edited March 1, 2016 by Hellmutt 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smccrory Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Hey Travis, glad you're letting us help you out bro. I wanted to relate a story from this weekend that may not make a lot of sense right now, but with a baby coming, it might someday. Yesterday I spent most of the day with my own daughter, picking up a pallet and turning it into a garden planter. We worked on how to use a socket set, electric drill and think on your feet when throwing a woodworking project together. We ran errands together, had dinner at a restaurant and did some light shopping. That might seem like no big deal for some people, but for me, it's priceless, as I may have mentioned that just under 4 months ago I was in Germany on an operating table for 5 hours and kept anesthetized for 18 hours to replace four badly damaged cervical vertebra. Before then, it would have been a rare day for me to be able to spend so much of it vertical, let alone actively passing on skills and creating memories with my daughter. It's exactly why I put myself through that reparative surgery and why I've been going through the pain of slowly, slowly, slowly working my way back to general fitness. It's not coming back as quickly as I'd like, but it is coming together, and I hope you see that happing little by little as you work your way back as well. Hope to see you at a future get-together, but like snot says, hearing that you're investing in your recovery is plenty good enough for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
