i got a message from his girl Alix, and she said he can't answer questions yet but he is talking more!
yay!:arms:

Thanks Ally

I'll get the cashiers check today.

cool Nick i think that's awesome :biggrin:

I'm hoping he's out of ICU by the time we get there or else we'll just be milling about outside (family only in ICU).....I'll feel a lot better if I can just give him a hug and see that wicked little Joe-sparkle in his eye.

Please remember, he cannot have flowers, calls or visitors until he's out of ICU - besides, the money spent on that could really be used toward his medical costs.....thanks to all who have sent notes of concern and well wishes...I have over 40 emails from all over the world - I'm printing them for Joe. I'm sure this will make his day.

Just got a call from Joe's brother Shawn - Joe's starting to come around this morning.....knew his name, what city he was in and the year, so this is good news.

Shawn also wanted me to tell you all just how touched he and Joe's girl Alix are with all the concern and well wishes. I've encouraged him to set up a Pay pal account so he can link any funds sent to the account they've set up there in San Luis Obispo. He should have this for me later today - I'll post it immediately.

Thanks again everyone,

Lisa

Excellent news. You can get creative with ICU rules. I know my friends did when I was in.

 

[LisaLisa]

Yes...did you know I'm his sister? ;-)~

And all this while I thought Joe was invincible.

It looks like I may see you sooner than planned Lisa, it's a shame it's under such bad circumstances. Ross and I are going to head up this weekend to show some support.

i was just up there from monday night to wednesday night. i talked to taylor a couple times, and he said that the hospital that he is at wont let you see him when hes in a critical state like that unless you are family or a significant other. i am going to be up there for good starting saturday, hope theyre letting people see him.

 

[LisaLisa]

Let me know if you guys need a place to snooze - mom and dad are ready for overnight visitors. Laurel is going to hold off on coming up until he's moved from ICU.....Joe's brother just called and said he had me added to the list, but I won't bother him unless he's feeling up to it. I need to go anyway as I owe my folks a visit big time - I'm hoping by this time Saturday afternoon we're all celebrating Joe's release from ICU.

You know the number "Mr. Hondo"...

This is a bit of a shock. Not that this has happened (it obviously shouldn't have) but just thinking that there may have been a chance that we would never see him in the water again.

Any man that goes as big as him, gets as drunk as him and carries on like a peanut has my vote...hell, he'd fit right in as an Aussie!

This may be an aussie thing (I doubt it though) and I know it doesn't help, but all I can picture in my head is the bloke that did this, and how I'd get great pleasure in knocking him on his arse. I'm not a violent person, but it makes me mad when someone thats done so much for us/the sport gets whooped by a random.

Anywho, I'm sure Joe will be killin' it again in no time, but here's to a speedy recovery, and a warm red bull and vodka...

Good luck mate!

Laurel is going to hold off on coming up until he's moved from ICU.....

As are Ross and I. If they move him from ICU before this weekend, we are headed up. Jenn might possibly hitch a ride as well.

I am quite confident the creep that had to run with an entire gang to show what a man he was has no idea of the wrath he has beset upon himself. SLO is a small town, and Karma is a biotch.

 

[willycrumb]

It doesnt seem like its gonna be to hard to locate him.:skull2:

 

[Takeastand SJ]

If nobody has any issues w/ it, I will take $500 of the donations we raised here in Daytona and give it to the fund. I just don't know if anyone would oppose that.



I think since it was a freeride and Joe is our big dog, we should do what we can to help him...

Awesome idea Nick.

 

[750SX]

get well Joe, hope your back in action soon!

 

[FL-cracker]

Get well Joe Kenney!

 

[x slide]

We love U so much :cheer: Get all our Love from St Martin for ever my friend !!!
Nick you are the Man and always have good ideas !!!!
