Bad news. Hope he makes a good recovery.

 

[Taylor]

Stable, induced coma. Poor guy.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

There's a facebook post floating around from someone who appears to know him that doesn't paint a pretty picture. Query brain damage if he pulls through.

Really hope he makes it through fine, don't want to see this happen to anyone.

we can only hope he does well from here. Best to keep an open mind on early reports. conditions can change quickly

Well thats very sad news

 

[ESKIE]

Yeh not good, wish him well

 

[estibador]

Those comments from his half-sister don't paint an optimistic picture. This is hitting pretty close to home for me because it's very similar to how my Mum died - hit by a car that didn't see her, ruptured spleen, induced coma for a week before she passed, the anniversary of which was two days ago. Hope Rhys has a better outcome than we did.

Sorry to hear that dude. Also hope Rhys has a full recovery. No one deserves that.

hope you're doing alright, and that Rhys recovers as much as possible

 

[rgauci]

Fingers crossed he pulls through OK.

 

[Belnakor]

sad news, especially when it appears it wasn't his fault, another example of why riding a motorbike is so dangerous.

 

[muzzington]

Really hoping for the best and that his condition turns around.

 

[yakka man]

Triple M say that he's in dire straits. Hopefully he makes a full recovery.

What a great result, considering the circumstances.

 

[Silent Alarm]

What a lucky campaigner, I was never going to say it on here but I was expecting brain trauma or for him to not make it.

Great news given the circumstances. Any word on the woman involved in the incident?

 

[Witch1]

Nothing like those wonderful words, 'expected to make a full recovery'.

Previous reports said she had minor hand / arm injuries.

I saw that update and it made me think of his parents at his bedside... can you imagine the rollercoaster of emotions his family has gone through first being told to prepare for the worst and then be told that he will make a full recovery.
I’ve got kids and when I heard that news I shed a few tears of joy thinking of his family.

That's great news. Still, sounds like his body has gone through some hairy stuff - going to be quite a journey to health.
