Doug True

Post by RuthGould »

Shellly Brown says Doug has 6 broken ribs as well as well as his left shoulder blade. All the trama is on his left side, and he was just transferred to ICU.

I would like to publicly apologize about the comments I made about the helicopter. I am so sorry! I had no idea Doug was getting a ride in it! I put my foot in my mouth there!

Praying for Doug to have a full, speedy recovery.

Does anyone have an update on Doug?

Perhaps the name of the hospital so we can call and check on him?

Thanks

Stopped to see Doug today in good spirits but still short of breath from the collapsed lung, he ask to keep him in your prayers.

Latest from his wife early this afternoon-
Trauma doctor says both lungs are partially collapsed on top but will not require chest tube at this time. Had planned to move him out of ICU until he got short of breath when physical therapist stood him up. Currently he is sitting on a chair and eating. Not sure what the plan will be for the shoulder blade.

I saw Doug this morning. He is out of ICU and in a step down unit. He is up walking with assistance. He made 3 laps around the unit today. His lap times were down a little bit. I smoked him on the first two laps but he started catching me on the last lap. I had to wick it up before he tried to put a pass on me. :D His lungs still have not fully inflated yet but as soon as they do I think they will release him to go home.

I want to thank my AHSCS family for getting me out of the woods and taking care of my stuff. Most importantly thanks for the visits and prayers, they were powerful. I'm at home recovering, getting a little better everyday (Guess God is not done with me yet). Thanks to Keith and his wife for ministering to Lori in the hospital. Thanks Bruce for the moto mag (doc wasnt happy about that lol) You all are an awesome group.

Doug, I know we are all glad it wasn't worse than it could have been. Not a good site to see a fellow friend/racer taken out on a stretcher. :( Keep healing up and come see us all soon.
