Update on MikZ - Improving

As you may have heard, MikZ was in an accident last night - he was on his bike in SF and was hit by a hit-and-run driver. He had a concussion and a dislocated shoulder. A lot of people in the community have rallied around to support him and his partner Jen, who has been giving him a lot of devoted care.

The concussion caused some memory loss that is expected to be only temporary and is already improving. I'm visiting him in the hospital now - he is lucid and energetic and expressive, and sounds like his normal self, aside from some occasional tiredness. He is eating and has interest in trying to walk, and hopes to be released from the hospital tonight. He is happy for visitors, but call first to see if he is still here (here being SF General on 22nd and Potrero). Phonecalls to his cel are also welcomed. He says with happy tears to say thanks very much for all the support that people in the community have shown.

[Edit: He's home now, and has posted an update in his own LJ]
