We really need to come together for affection and to put our thoughts together for Andreas. He has been in a car accident and is in hospital. Details are that it is crushed ribs,and possible liver damage, but he is in the best care and may require some surgery. As the information comes in and he gets in touch with his friends here, we will all know his progress. I am sure that every nurse in there will be working at his beck and call, so he will have all the attention needed to pull him through smiling.

This may be in his local newspaper so I have a link from him.
In swedish so maybe Modesty can translate when in there.

That's ok Noeline ...Just glad people will be behind him.I am sure others will be able to update us too as if it were me I would have a laptop brought into my room.Or wheel out to the nursing station and bribe them to let me on thier computers.

I just thought I'd let you know that I've done some reading at the news site allehanda.se that Andreas sent me the URL to from his cellphone, and I can't find any information about this at all. There's been a lot of accidents and they tend to bunch them together to a number with brief information, but nothing in detail. Too many of them I guess. The whole country have been a mess because of the bad weather, so there's been chaos everywhere as it seems. Today I will call my son who's living in the middle part of the country and see how things are around there. No news can be good news too, and I think that Andreas will be just fine. He's being taken care of (and I KNOW that Swedish nurses are like any other nurses...hehehe) and we'll have him back in no time :D C.

OH MY GOD!!! Are you people the most wonderful bunch there is or what?!!! AWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! I cant even begin to tell you all what this means to me. Im so grateful and so proud of belonging to such a caring and thoughful group of people. You guys are the BEST!!!!!!!!!!! I also got told that some of you even dedicated to me in the galleries, and i just want you all to know that i will try and catch up as soon as im feeling stronger. Right now im in alot of pain and im getting morphine on a regular basis. My autofocus aint functioning and my stabilizator is completely dead. I cant focus my eyes on the screen longer than 5 minutes before i get dizzy. This reply alone has taken me most of the day to write. Small pieces at a time. Im back home and i hope i can stay here. Thank God, my wife is a nurse. I need help getting in and out of bed, and getting dressed. Other than that its all about catching my breath and trying to learn how to walk properly again. The 80-year olds at the hospital were speeding by me in their walking-chairs...sigh...thats how slow i am, LOL. It was a very nasty crash, one im lucky to have survived...and to walk away from it in no worse shape than this is nothing but a miracle. Then learning that you all are pulling for me, made things so much easier. And my desire to get back home to tell you all how much i treasure you grew. I have a few broken ribs that they are concerned might puncture my lungs unless im careful. And my spleen wont be in the safe untill 2 weeks from now or so. So its all about resting for me now. Ill come on and say "hi" and to catch up with all of you as soon and as often as i can. I just...dont know what to say really. Im speachless. You are all so wonderful. From the bottom of my heart....thank you!!! Gentle gentle gentle HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS all around!!! MAS4eva!!!!!...pssst Kort...we need to expand our membership-policy. So many qualified folks around wouldnt ya say? #;O)

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

As usual I am fashionably late. I hope you recover from your accident very soon Andreas! I was going to post a lovely portrait of a Moth with this to cheer you up, LOL ;-) Warm and sunny greetings from Florida with wishes for a speedy recovery! Wendy

Late to the game, but glad you are home and hope your recovery continues well. Rest, and before long you will be back, and those 80 year olds will not stand a chance!

Hey...fantastic news: Zacko is at home and already 'on air' again. Great to see your little comment here, but be careful man! Take a good rest and get well soon (I think that this huge support from everybody around here maybe is the best medicine there is). Regards from The Netherlands Paul

Being new to R.R., I didn't know about this Forum room. I wasn't aware anything had happened to you. Boy... talk about learning things late. But I sure am glad you'll be alright. What would we do without you? My heart goes to you and your family. I know you'll be in good hands. Take your time and don't rush things. You know we're not going anywhere. These things need lots of time to heal. You'll be in my thoughts & prayers. (kisses cheek) Love, Rhonda

Holey Moley....I am really behind! I just now saw a link posted in the comments on your 300th by GiMi53 and am so glad you are home! To be blessed that your wife is a nurse as well! I was very upset when I started reading the posts here because you were so kind to me when I first came around, answering my silly questions and helping with many tips...you are a very special person to a lot of people here and I am so glad you are going to be ok! My 13 yr old (Lynn) says to say "Hi" and "Just chill-out for a while" (lol) I am wishing you a full recovery-and no matter what one's faith is, (or is not) I personally believe that angels were most definitely watching over you! Best Wishes to you and your family (and a big hug of support to your wife!) I have included Mariah's photo to help cheer you up!

I was neglecting Renderosity for a week or so, cause it was soooo hectic at work. So, I only heard today about the accident. Andreas, I really hope you're doing better by now my friend. I will keep you in my prayers and hope for a speedy recovery.

The sole purpose in life is serving humanity.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my IM and to provide me with the link to this. I knew you were well loved in the gallery and this confirms it. I'll be saying some prayers for you and your wife as you continue to recover. Barbara

Andreas, I'm floored at the quality of the images everyone posted in this thread for you. Just thought I'd make that observation. ;]
