Monday Rolls Around Again: A Note to Andrew

It’s twelve weeks from the day of your “tip-over” Andrew, nearly three months to the day. Considering what you did for a living I never deceived myself that this could not happen to us. It’s been no walk in the park seeing you so badly hurt, but I’m thankful for all that we have and seeing you improve everyday.

Our lives won’t be the same and sometimes that’s hard to wrap my head around, but like you told me in the emergency room, “everything is going to be fine.” Keep working hard and soon enough everything will be fine.

love you always, deb

  1. Hi Andrew & deb,
    It's a shame how such a fantastic pastime (bikes) can give such a buzz and when you least expect it, it bites you in the butt.
    Well Andrew, you are doing fantastically well
    in your uphill journey and you obviously have
    a superb lady by your side. Keep it up buddie.
    Deb,we can only imagine the pressures & anguish
    you are facing but hang on in there you are Andrew's rock.
    all our thoughts and best wishes are with you
    Barry & Jan

  8. Reality bites. I just got life insurance for my 2 year old daughter so that I could still ride. Pretty selfish of me actually. I tried to quit and do the sports car thing instead but it ain't the same. Maybe carting? In any case, I feel for you and hope all goes well. The beard is more HD now than Sport bike.

  9. Hey Trevitt,
    You look positively Lincoln-ess! Or is it Lincoln-like? Something about the beard, I suppose. Keep up the hard work, your improvement is awesome! I really appreciate it that you and Debbie take the time to keep us all informed. Come to think about it, you also resemble one of the Smith Bros. (of cough drop fame).
    take care,
    Jim Brown

  12. Hello Trevitts,
    Andrew, you are right as usual...everything will be fine. Your devotion to each other is so beautiful, very few people ever find that. There will be hard times, but you both are very strong people and you'll get through it.

    I have no doubt that Andrew will fly through rehab and amaze us all, and we can't wait to see him back at work when the time comes.

    Like Andy said, we are here for you.

    Love,
    Laura
