Dear Curly,

I'm sorry you had so many accidents... that all-around skull fracture sounded terrible... the memory issues and fuzziness could in fact be linked to that - did they dx a TBI?

Nonetheless, riding sounds like a real passion for you. Have you always been a Harley man or were you at some point into the high-revving, rip through the speed of light Japanese bikes (Ninja etc)?

ROFLOL!
I love how you stitched that jacket back together. sounds like it's a second skin to you, not just in terms of protection... but perhaps in a way it's like a part of you?

I've only ridden as a passenger before but i've loved every ride i must say. Anyway, just be careful.... you know... vaya con Dios.

Honk 3 times .
Sorry for the delay. Hard getting signals in & out of these canyons!

Yeah, that one was bad, I was soaked in blood from the waist up...and it was all from my ears. They said that was good though, cause my brain didn't swell. I ended up with a few stitches on my elbo and a few behind my ear. No broken bones...well, except for my headbone So, it could have been much worse.

Honestly I'm not really sure what they dx'd. I've had some TBI symptoms over the years...what can they do now, 10 years later?

A year earlier I totaled another bike which was less tramatic on me and then 6months before the bad wreck I had 4 disks fused together in my neck. So when I woke up in the emergency room my neurosurgeon was standing over me looking worried. But she said all of her work held together well

My wife is my medical note keeper, she's really good at that cause she's interested. So I let her have it.

Yes, I really do love to ride. When we go on vacations, or just wherever we go as a family I'm on the harley and they are in my wife's car. I've been riding since I was 14 (1969) but my first harley was in the early 90's. My 13 year old daughter used to want to ride all the time when she was little, but now that she's gotten old enough she's decided it's not cool. Either her mama has talked some sense into her or she don't want to mess her hair up

Even though I remind them that none of the wrecks were my fault...well they don't seem to care

Yeah, that thing was so cut up I thought pieces were missing. But during the recovery of the wreck I started stitching what I could back together and found it was complete. Then I got some similar leather to patch over a few nasty looking spots. The insurance company actually bought me a brand new one but I ended up getting rid of it and keeping this one. Yes, in a way it truly is a part of me.

Thank you
