That's very kind of you and greatly appreciated. Even more than money, time is our most valuable resource, and you donated a good chunk of it. It's not unnoticed.

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.
It's very hard to come away from listening to the LOTR commentaries without developing a man-crush on Dorkman. He's at it literally for almost half a day and brings up a great amount of background information and details about both movies and books. I'd recommend those to a listen through.

I had the thought this week, listening to commentaries on various horror films including Carrie, that when Dorkman wakes up there's a good chance his opinion on post-accident Stephen King will be different. The change in King's writing will suddenly make a whole lot more sense.

It feels a little bit like I'm in mourning, which is a horrible thing to say. He's not gone, just absent. And it leaves a weird Mike-on-the-Internet shaped hole.
My thoughts are with you buggers who actually know him. He just poked holes in my opinions through Facebook, yet I lament. To not have him around must be harder.

Today's update is heartbreaking, but at the same time it encourages me so much to hear that he's at this cognitive level and seems to be steadily improving.

I think it's thrilling. All things considered, it's virtually the best case scenario.
Yea, Mike!

Wow. I hadn't checked fb yet. Good spoilers.

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.
Thank you for the update on FB. Will be sending encouraging postcards this coming week, and keep on praying.
Hang in there, my friends!
*Internet hugs*
God loves you!

Postcard sent! Hopefully it wings its way across the Atlantic quickly.

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.
It's still heartbreaking. A part of me always just assumed "It's Mike. He'll be just fine. He'll just wake up with David at his side and simply ask where he is, and what happened".
It never really occurred to me that this would be a possibility.
At the same time though, it's great to hear that according to how things actually work in the real world, he's doing great.

So, he has flashcards for "YES" and "NO".
Next time one of you visits, take a flashcard that says "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN THERE'S GONNA BE A GHOSTBUSTERS REBOOT?" and ask him the appropriate question. If he's started smiling, I'm sure his sense of humour will start coming back on-line soon, too

Very encouraging news indeed. Recognizing his boyfriend is huge. I had a friend who was in a similar situation and his accident literally erased the last 10 years of his memory. He experienced a similar state of waking up too so nothing in the updates sound discouraging.
How are the rest of you guys holding up?

Lol. He can't speak yet and we're already getting movie related opinions. Best update so far. Long road ahead but definitely pointed in the right direction.

Mike's getting better. I expect him to be intolerably smug about the outpouring of affection he's receiving on Facebook.
Should we start making snarky remarks?

At some point Mike is gonna read this thread.
Shit. Everyone say dismissive crap about his injuries.

Pfft. I've had worse. Let me tell you about the time I got this wicked paper cut in the webbing between my thumb and index finger.
