Get Well Soon Jonsie :)

[Cleoriff]

Some of you will know that our Jonsie/Steve  (one of the longest serving members of this forum and friend to many) .....was involved in a serious car accident in Thailand on Monday 20th February. He suffered head, chest and leg injuries and was being nursed on a ventilator

Due to the instability of his condition and the fact we weren't sure of the prognosis. I didn't post openly.. even though I had 'written' permission from the family.

Instead I contacted a lot of people via private message and other routes. It was agreed by myself and O2 management that I could post when Jonsie's condition started to improve.

Thankfully that day has arrived.

Steve has two sons who travelled to Thailand to be with their dad this weekend. I have received messages (and a picture) showing that he is now off the ventilator, sitting up in bed and managing Jonsie type conversations with his lads. (In between sleeping a lot which will be due to the pain relief he is receiving)

So great news.

If anyone wants to add good wishes please do so on this thread. (Even if you have sent them to me privately before) I will get them to Steve

As a nurse, I firmly believe in medicine and science. Due to the recovery Steve has made since his sons arrival at his bedside ...I also believe in the power of love.  

Continue getting well Steve.

No specific news about his condition. Though a couple of us have had a very short chat with him via messenger.. 

I am waiting to hear back from one of his sons but only contacted him tonight. Jonsie is still in hospital and he has a long way to go. As soon as I hear anything I will post here. I have passed on every message from those who have posted on this thread. I know he really appreciates all your good wishes x.

Give him my best please - he is in my thoughts for a good recovery.

Yes it is fantastic to see and he mentions my most favourite city in the UK - York. Welcome back Jonsie.....😊

[jonsie]

A godawful couple of days recovery here. Some times literally screaming in pain through the mouth clamps. Yet at other times morphine given at every stage and different doses by the indicator machine consisting of a pillow with an indicator to scientifically check how hard you press.... Well I've seen them checking the size of the assistants bruises once you release him from hostage. 

So good in fact we do again tonight as well as try to do some dental work. Oh joy! 

[Cleoriff]

Mouth clamps? ? Fgs man what sort of hell hole are you in? Anyway it sounds as if you need that morphine so let them pump it in. In case you can't be bothered to move threads @jonsie.it's Bahrain F1 today. Bottas God love him... is on pole. His first pole ever. Very emotional Lewis is 2nd and Vettel 3rd. Starts 4pm UK time

Thanks D.... Not sure I'll be awake but I'll see 😊
