Back in May, a friend of mine from Ireland was supposed to tour the United States and stop by Cleveland on his way to Arizona to visit me and another friend of ours.  A couple weeks before he was to come he didn't return calls or emails to our mutual friend and I.

We thought since he had just started dating a lovely gal that perhaps he had decided to skip going to the USA for a while.  But we were both wondering why he just fell out of touch, since he had bought a plane ticket and was really looking forward to coming to the USA for the first time, for a visit.

Well today I found out that he was actually in a car accident in May, two of his friends were with him and they both died. My friend ended up in a coma, and has just recently come out of it.

Im so thankful he is okay.

    OMG. That's terrible -- what he went through, and what happened to his friends. I'm very glad to hear that he made it, and that you may still have an opportunity to see him in the future.

      Oh no -- what a horrible thing to happen -- but still, I am glad he made it, and I hope you get to see him.

        What dreadful news and what an awful time for him and his family. And so sad for his poor friends who died. But glad to hear that he is recovering. Perhaps you will get to see him on yr visit to Europe?

          i dont know that ill see him when im over but he is coming to the usa as soon as he is better

          *S* apparently he said when he awoke that he wasnt a girl and didnt need flowers, but he did ask for someone to get him grapes lol

          i feel badly for not knowing what happened to him, he has been in intensive care, and he lost two of his friends - all this time i just thought he changed his mind about vacationing to the usa n left it at that

          im lucky - once my friends and i were hit by a drunk driver - i came out with minor scratches - my friend mark was seated next to me - he had to have surgery after his head was busted open - but everyone survived - thank god

            Wow - glad your friend is ok. This is one of the things that never ceases to amaze me about my internet friendships. Over the years Ive had a few net friends who've been in accidents and even sadly passed away. As a result , a few of us have swapped details like parents home numbers and alternate emails for family in case - heaven forbid - anything happens then we can at very least find out. A lack of proximity does not constitute a lack of care and consideration. Bless....and again glad your friend is ok, and hope he copes well with the future.

              This is my two cents...
