cooperlola2 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Good morning. I aplogise for my intrusion, but I have important news re my wife, member cooperlola, I think.She was driving back from the UK yesterday when involved in a crash on the RN12. She was airlifted to Rouen where she has been diagnosed with multiple fractures of arms, legs, ribs. Vital signs appear ok, and she was apparently conscious and somewhat alert on arrival in hospital. I expect to visit Thrusday, and will be pleased to update on here if that is appropriate.I am so ignorant on forum discipline that I do not know how to boadcast this news in any other way (my Groups tend to be Yahoo, which work differently!) and cooperlola's computer is not a friendly place for a husband to lurk!Again, for those who neither know nor care, I apologise, but please try to understand my position!Iancooperlola2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Katie Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I am very sorry Ian, thank God she came out of it. I thought of her just last week as I drove past Le Mans. Give her my love. Just to let you know, Debs is a wonderful asset to the forum and is a wealth of information to people like myself who have recently arrived in France. Tell her to hurry up and get better as we need her. [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judith Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Yes, the RN10 can be a very dangerous place at times, I've nearly come a cropper on it more than once.I can only reiterate the thoughts already written, and let us hope that like SD, who thankfully came out his crash earlier in the year without too many injuries, she will will soon be well enough to be back home and part of her friends on this forum very soon. The health care issue did not affect me fortunately, so I was not party to much of the discussion, but it was obvious the work she put in. I'm sure you'll convey all the good wishes from the forum members when you visit on Thursday.Fingers crossed the outcome is as we all hope.

cooperlola2 Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 I am very humbled by the outpouring of warmth on here - clearly Deb has hit the mark wih the nature of her contributions. Of course, that's no real surprise to me after 35 years together! She is the organiser in our marriage, which makes the next few month look a trifle scary.It was suggested that the FHI site should say something - I have sent a note but have had no response. I do wonder if they think Deb is now back in the saddle! Be assured that any representation of my message this morning, in any place you feel appropriate, has my full blessing.Thanks for being a super bunch!Ian cooperlola2 (I'm often several laps behind her, anyway!)
