The man who was pinned under the car would be my uncle. He may very well survive but his chances of walking are slim to none.
Some much for a better 2008.

That's no good.
Hopefully he will prove them wrong and walk again.

wishing the best for your uncle.
Thats a crazy thing to have happen, I wonder if the driver had a heart attack @ the wheel?
I was going to post a link to that thread, but the SG search results for "bullsh|t" were too numerous

I am deeply sorry to hear of your uncle's injury, and in complete empathy with the "helpless" feelings you must be engaging in this time of sadness. May be he in the best hands possible.
