Prayers going up for Governor Corzine.
My son had similar injuries from a motorcycle accident. His life was saved by the trauma team at a big city hospital. Long recovery afterwards.
Hats off to all the dedicated trauma team personnel at Cooper Hospital and everywhere else.

Every day I’m amazed at the capacity of the human body to withstand these injuries. I’m amazed at the surgeons who are able to patch up people who are so severely injured. I work in a step down unit and the patients done stay long before the go to the regular floors or to rehab. So I’m always happy to hear of people I’ve cared for and how they are doing. Is your son doing ok? I certainly hope so. some people recover fully, but some have lingering problems for years. Age and overall health is a big factor. I’ve seen elderly people die from the same type of injuries that an 18 year old only stays in the hospital a few days for.

THis has nothing to do with Corzine, though I am from NJ and of course didn’t vote for him: it has to do with your tagline. I have been telling me wife, and whoever else, for about 2 months now that the plus-size Jordin will be the American Idol. Not because she is necessarily a better singer than Melinda, but because she is a full 10 years younger, and that will count for a lot. If I was an record producer or exec I know I would be pulling for her. I have been looking to see if there are Vegas odds on this, but I don’t think they’ve started yet. I would get a bet in if the odds are right, like 10-1 or higher.
