Hope some Georgian can get to where they are and tell Wayne how many people are hoping and praying for him and Vicki to recover ....  Wayne and Vicki had a ton of experience riding together, something really hard must have hit them ....

Thanks!   For sure let us know if there's anything any of us can do for them.   I already owe Wayne big time for things he's done for me ....

I spent 21 days bedside with my brother after his big crash last year.  I know what they and the families are up against.  My heart goes out to wish them all well.  Recovery will take time but hope they can get out of the institutions and back home with family ASAP.  That speeds healing.

Have yet to meet Wayne but know he's a great guy who goes out of his way to help others here.  :sad:  Hope they  both heal up OK.  If he, they still work, this isn't going to be good on their finances.
