Really sorry to hear via Bea that you were in a car accident last weekend & even worse, both suffered broken bits (but thank the Gods, the children were unhurt)...
Sincerely wishing you both a speedy recovery. -------------

The latest news is that Jean and Friede will be out of hospital on friday. I told them about the posts in the forum, and they thank you all for your sympathy (which they will no doubt do personally as soon as they are home). It will take a while until they'll have fully recovered; there seems to have been some heavy surgery. The wound on Jean's arm where they performed surgery is a foot long (no exaggeration)! And Friede's ankle was cut open from both sides. Jean has a metal plate in her upper arm now, and Friede has two nails in her foot.

The kids were really frightened by the accident, which does not surprise me at all; it scared the sh*t out of me too. The good thing is the hospital allows them to stay with their mothers (there are some advantages to being a private patient instead of a panel patient). And they seem to find some fun in acting as kind of nurses for their mothers.

We never know in life, from one day to the next, what awaits us, so if you are well today, folks, try to smile, and make someone else smile too -- it could always be worse.

James - I think you have something here... I recommend a full investigation into the individual who organised the "get-together" in the first place: JOREN! You have the right to remain silent, you have the right to legal representation, if you choose not to exercise the right to legal representation, we shall kick your skinny young butt all over the station, whilst jumping up & down on your Beefheart CDs & playing Kylie Minogue albums at you at full volume... CONFESS! Seriously though - just re-read Bea's summation of BJ/BF's injuries/surgery; take care friends, get well soon, then sue Joren  .

I visited Jean and Friede this afternoon. Jean is trying to compress a rubber foam ball with her right hand all the time. She has two of them, a yellow one and a blue one; the yellow one is the easier one to squeeze, but both are no problem for a normal hand. At the moment she hardly has any effect on the yellow one , but the doctors say it is just a matter of time and training until she will fully regain her strength. Friede is not supposed to put any weight on her left foot for the next six weeks; after that the doctors will have a look at the foot again and hopefully give the . There is a slight possibility that she will keep a little limp; let's keep our fingers crossed she won't; I've always admired the cat-like way she moves (not as much as Jean though ) and would hate to see her lose it.
