I just talked with Greg, he is on his way back from seeing Travis in Seattle. Travis walked today!!!!! Nurses assisted him up and supported him as he walked stiff legged with splints, the nursing staff did most of the work I understand, but he was up and struggling through the pain to be moving, walking!!! They sat him back to rest and were going to move him back to his bed---but, oh no, he was determined to "walk" back! And he did just that. He struggled with the pain and sheer determination persevered to be up and moving. He has an incredible spirit and is determined to speed up the recovery process. His condition is still extremely critical, but you would never know it with his spirit and determination. He is a hard charger, his checkered flag is recovery.

Didn't he just finish 3rd at a race in Texas last weekend? He was listed in the results?
Good to hear that he is back.

That post was from Aug. 2, 2010 Bad Daddy. Go to the LAST page of that thread to read that Mr. Rilat ran third the other night ... good stuff!
