Carrie called (God Bless you Girlie!) They are keeping Gordo in a coma. They stopped the bleeding but everytime his blood pressure goes up, the bleeding starts again. He had 3 grandmal seizures that lasted about 2 minutes a piece - they arent sure of the damage yet but he is holding his own

He was with a friend when it started and was trying to communicate in between the seizures .....


Come on Mike .... hold on ....

Praying for you Mike

Carrie just called. They expect to keep Mike on the ventilator for at least a week. They did a CT scan this morning and are waiting for the results..... Ill post as soon as Carrie calls

<<<<<<<<<< GORDO>>>>>>>>>>>>

Please keep us posted Dawn.

Update - Carrie called. They havent gotten the "official" word from the Doc but the nurse said that one side if clear but the other side was cloudy (she couldnt remember which side) but they think the cloudiness is from the blood that is still there. They are slosing taking him off of his meds and he does have movement in his arms, legs, neck so thats all good.

Carrie said to thank everyone for the phone calls and prayers. You guys are amazing!!!

I dont know who is Gordo..Can anyone tell me who is he?

However, you are in my prayers!!!! Get better soon, man! :)

Hang in there buddy, our prayers are with you and your family.

Here's Gordo in one of his finest moments.

Hopefully he has many more days like this one in Pickwick 2006.

Gordo on right with thumb up.

He has done what you want to do - established himself as a competant Driver in many different classes with many different teams - including my Super V in 2004.

He did a great job.

Gregg Reichman

He also ran his Active Thunder in F1 in the early days.

Thanks for the updates Dawn.

Gordo, we are pulling for you!

I talked to Carrie earlier today and she said he looks better, his color is better, he seems to be aware of things going on around him ..... hes still sudated but he is responding to the people in the room .... its been a good day for him. He made a funny face when Jeanette shaved his face and bit the nurse on the finger. He also moved his hands. He looks great and the doctors are happy with the progress he has made today.

and in case you missed these, Ryan made stickers for the boats in Sarasota for this weekend. I called Carrie cryin when I saw them and Ryan is gonna send a bunch out to them for Mikes hospital room, his family and all the fire trucks. How cool is that!!!!!

Get well Gordo...you will be racing again before you know it!

Hey Dawn,
That is awesome news!! biteing the nurse is a very good sign that he's getting better. Can you get me some stickers? We will be honored to put them on the boat.
Thanks, Louie

I would like some of the stickers too!!!!
