yes. he was 7 lbs when we got him now he's 15 lbs and more solid. he's still short/small but a lot stronger and you give him a "big dog" pat on his side and he's cool with it.

what happened to your friend?

my boss here has been a real pain in the *** about getting a magazine rack and magazine for patients to read while waiting. my buddy was left up to getting the magazines. this is what he got. the entire rack is filled with the same subject matter. picture 90 year old ladies reading these:



matt, pics of said lotus (when you get it) or it didn't happen

Dan he fell out of a tree stand, fractured a few vertabrae, bit through his lip, minor internal head bleeding..............you know the usual. He has a few bone fragments real close to his spinal cord, so that the big problem now

The thing that sucks is he has two kids, and a wife in school and he is the only income. You cant run heavy equipment with a broken back

Send some mags to my Doc, he can send you some better home and garden and craft weekly

youre just butthurt cause youre not getting the first ride. you wanna try tooning it? there doesnt seem to be any open source tuning going on.
i got some parts in mind... smaller pulley,bigger intercooler, walbro 190l some injectors, exhaust, ported ex. manifold. intake. maybe the horse wants to get into lotuses (loti?) next.

remember peter, it weighs 2k, 250whp would feel like 400whp in a evo. and i plan on getting the weight down a bit too. 2pc rotors, lighter wheels (te37 in matte black i think) exhaust, mini battery, rear panel delete. i bet i can get below 2100lbs with me in it no problem.
you should get them powder coated white too just to keep the theme going

damn sorry to hear. there is no such thing as minor internal head bleeding. i hope that when he gets through this that there is no major brain injury. only tiem will tell. that can really F his life up.

i know a girl that was on some pysch med that caused her to have a seizure. she fell and hit her head and ended up with a pretty serious brain injury. she has all the classic signs but just looks lazy and disorganized to employers. it is a shame because she was just finishing up vet school. now she can't hold down a simple joe job.

Your right only time will tell. The head trauma was watched for about a week in the trauma center, they didnt let him move at all. The bleeding stopped pretty quicky so they think everything will be fine.

Let me ask you this, His back doctor in Reading told him that crozer will only give MRI results to the patient in person. Why cant his wife pick them up or is that some bs.
They tell him not to ride in a car for at least a month, but only he can pick up MRI results

I dont remember having to do that **** when I broke my back, .My specialist had everything he needed.

people in healthcare misinterpret HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)regulations all the time. i tell you what he can do and then i will tell you what is totally F'd up on Crozer's part.

1) He can fill out a release to give info/test results to whoever he chooses like his wife etc. Some places will do it via fax but most want the original.

2) Transferring/transporting diagnostic testing and other medical information to a provider who is continuing care to the patient is permitted under HIPAA without any sort of documentation stating so. My hunch is that Crozer is playing games because they spent the money and time to do his MRIs that they're just not going to give it up to someone at Reading. Their thought is: "if you want to treat the patient, then do your own tests." They're being babies because he took his business elsewhere. That is how messed up our system is.

His doctors should be able to demand it with no problem. And if they leave it up to him then they're not very good themselves.

Thats pretty much what I figured. His Dr needs to try harder, but could probably make more if they do more test in Reading, the same way Crozer wants to keep thier results.

Oh and the Crozer security guards are the rudest people ever.
