About this Site

This blog has been set up for Dale P's friends and family as a resource for information on Dale's condition. Updates will be posted about once a week. As most of you know Dale fell from her bicycle on July 30, 2008. No one witnessed the incident, so the best assumption we can make is that it was a bad fall off the bike. As a result of this fall, Dale is suffering from Tramatic Brain Injury (TBI). If you would like to read more about TBI, you can do a google search for TBI or check these web sites:

At this time you are not able to post messages. When Dale is well enough to read, posting will be activated and we'd love to have you send your thoughts and cheerful greetings. We hope that will be soon. Thank you for all your well wishes and concern. It is heart warming to know Dale has so many caring friends.

Questions and Answers

Q: When can I visit Dale?
A: We don't know when the doctors will allow non-family visits. We will let you know just as soon as they tell us it's OK. We really wish it could be soon, but simply can't predict when that will be.
Q: Is someone taking care of her cat?
A: Trixie the cat is in good hands and is as feisty as ever.
Q: I want to help. What can I do?
A: We are so appreciative of the many friends Dale has. The two most helpful things you can do at this time are to read about TBI to understand the condition (see links at the top of page) and to send your healing thoughts to Dale. We hope to be able to call on you for help, visits and support sometime in the next months.
