About 2 weeks ago our drummer, Keith, had an accident while trying to climb over a fence and landed awkwardly on his neck. As a result he broke the 4th, 5th, and 6th vertebrae and did some damage to his spinal chord. As of now he is paralyzed from the chest down but does have some mobility in his arms. He was in traction for two weeks but has since had a very successful surgery to fuse the vertebrae together and stabalize his neck.
Due to the fact that he has been laying on his back with no movement for 2 week, one of his lungs collapsed and he has had to have a tracheotomy to assist in his breathing. On top of everything he is fighting off pneumonia. Please keep Keith and his family in your thoughts and prayers during this trying time. The doctors have told us there is no way for them to speculate on what his condition will be in the future...only time will tell. They have told us that with such an extensive injury they expect Keith to live in a physical rehabilitation facility for at least a year after he is out of the hospital.
In the meantime, our online store is finally finished so please go spend a few bucks in order to help out financially. Also, I am working on putting together a benefit show or two so look for updates on that.
Sincerely,
Chas
