I visited Ian in Coventry University Hospital today and the general prognosis is much better than it was 24 hours ago. The main concerns on Sunday night were the blood supply to the lower leg and any nerve damage there may have been.
Doctors are now confident that both these aspects of the injury are better than first were feared.
Ian will go into theatre tomorrow (Thursday) for the Tibia and Fibula pinning.
Although a little annoyed that the accident wasn't his fault the lad is in good spirits and is looking forward to being repatriated back up to Yorkshire sometime next week. He would also like to thank everyone for their support and good wishes. James Whitham.
