what exactly happened?

ive realized that a lot of you dont even know exactly what happened..sorry the information is swirling around and getting confused! this is an account of what happened last thursay:

Jon has had a love for motorcycles since about 16 years old..of course he parents wisely said "no thanks" to that idea...

about 7 years ago he was able to get his own motorcycle.. he would use that to commute to and from work where as we could only afford one vehicle..for his 30th bday i bought him a REALLY sweet motorcycle that he had always wanted..he also used that to commute to and from work..but mostly for pleasure..

he has been and used dirt bikes before in the past...

last thursday jon was riding a 120..he went up the hill and was coming down and hill..wasnt going very fast..he said he just "hit the wrong rock/bump" and he flipped over the handle bars..he had over extended his neck..meaning he had put his chin REALLY close to his chest- too much so..when he landed he had his C5 had obliterated..he was totally aware and awake and knew INSTANTLY what had happened..he knew right away that he couldnt feel anything from his shoulders down..he said he even felt and heard a pop sound..he knew he was "done for the day" his exact words he told sheldon..

the paramedics were called out and rushed to him..they accessed him and quickly had him in an ambulance..as the ambulance drove the bumpy roads..they decided it was too dangerous and called for a helicopter to life flight him in..they waited an HOUR before it got there- the wierd thing was the hospital was only 10 minutes BY CAR!!!

sheldon mcgee and jake thompson say he was in SUCH good spirits..almost in humor..he kept saying..im so sorry i ruined your day..and your bike..and your gear...ill totally pay you back for everything..im sooo sorry..he kept telling them..its not that bad..sall good..its not a big deal..really he's fine..

the MRI initually showed that there was severe damage at the c5 part of the spinal cord..they couldnt tell how bad..due to the swelling..and there was extensive nerve damage..and only time prayers and hope would tell what the outcome would be..

so there you have it- ive realized some people knew what happened and some only have bits and pieces and are trying to put it together..sorry for the confusion - hope this helped!
