Xian In Intensive Care Unit (GOING HOME!!!)

[GSXR RACER MIKE]

Sadly I report that Xian had a somewhat bizarre crash which has resulted in him ending up in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) in an Omaha Hospital due to injuries suffered at MAM during the CCS/TrackAddix event.

Xian suffered multiple injuries when his left side and the bike had an unfortunate encounter. As of now I was told by the doctor that he had a collapsed lung which required a tube being inserted in his chest, both lungs are badly bruised, a broken shoulder, a broken collar bone, at least 1 fractured rib, and internal bleeding which is of concern due to the doctors not knowing where it's coming from yet. He is currently being given Morphine to help with the pain, but we could tell when we visited him that it was only helping so much.

He had carpooled with us to the event, so we collected all his belongs and packed them in the trailer and brought some of his personal belongings to the Hospital for him as well. Due to the doctor's telling us that they were unsure how long he would be there (3 - 4 + days) we have regretfully returned home minus Xian. I have been in contact with his sister and she will be making arrangements for his return home (most likely flying down to get him). The doctor's told me that due to the lung injuries they doubt they will allow him to fly, so he is going to have to endure a 8-9 hour ride in a car back home.

On a lighter note when we visited Xian he was in good spirits (considering his pain) and we even got a picture of him in the ICU which he would like posted here. Somehow while we were there the side of Christians bed got desecrated with racing stickers to create a more familiar environment, we even think we know who did it! 

I wish you a quick and total recovery Christian, good luck!

I'm a local to Omaha area and my son was one of the MAM staff that helped get him collected from the track

I've been in this situation myself with an accident away from home

if there is ANYTHING I can do to assist with Xian or getting him home, please do not hesitate to ask.  I'm retired from the Air Force and am currently not punching a clock for anyone so my schedule is pretty flexible

Heal Fast Brother!

[Suzy]

I hope you have a speedy recovery.

This sucks. Heal fast Xian. I suffered similar injuries at Willow Springs in 2000. You're in for a long car ride and lots of sleeping in a Lay-Z-Boy once you get home. All the best.

Prayers for you Xian (yeah, I know how you feel about that....)

Just know that you are in our thoughts.  Heal up quick.

X, you're in my thoughts.  Heal fast!

[Super Dave]

Sucks.

Get better, Xian..

Bike in bad shape?  Usually seems like physical injuries are the inverse of crash damage.

MJ...did you get him the bone stuff?

[r1owner]

Get well Xian....

Maybe the title should also say (But he's going to be OK) cause I thought the worst when I saw that.

[Woofentino Pugrossi]

Damn.

I see the hospital bed now has 'sponsors' tags on it now
