Hi all,

 

First off I would like to thank all of you who have shown me support with my
recent injury.  THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

 

Now I've just returned from seeing the Doctor and he has told me that I
should not be doing any hikes this soon so I have taken my name off the
Santa Cruz hike for Monday October 3.  I would be very grateful if someone
would take it as it is now open.

 

Last but not least.  Are you aware of ICE?  ICE means In Case of Emergency.
Let me emphasize how important ICE is to you.  When I had my accident two
weeks ago not only was I alone but I was rendered unconscious as a result of
the accident.  Well, ICE saved the day.  Emergency personnel are trained to
look for ICE on cell phones or in a wallet.  As luck would have it I was
wearing a runners wallet, marked ICE, on my shoe with my emergency contacts
and medical information in it.  By using this information the emergency
personnel were able to give me the best of care and contact my wife.  If you
don't have an ICE wallet you should put ICE on your cell phone so the
emergency personnel can contact your family in the event you are not able to
respond.
