JeanLouis Becker - hospitalised due to heavy car crash
Though he wasnt that active the last few years, my friend (and skydiver/basejumper) Jean Louis Becker still has quite a few friends everywhere (as wel as clients for his gearstore, tunedbyjlo.com). He did quite a few jumps at Kjerag, a lot of (low) dutch stuff, and aldo made a nice lasting 'impression' at Petronas.Tongue
So I figured people would appreachiate hearing he is currently in the hospital, and sadly not doing to well right now.

Last week, a truck hit the car he was in (on duty as a police officer) full on, in the drivers side where he was sitting.
Luckely the car had side-impact airbags. But still lots of internal trauma, broken ribs, his spleen was removed, and he had bleeding in the brain.
With the later now causing loss of motor control and partial paralisis in his legs.

He is awake, and doing okay mentaly. Just puzzled about what exactly happened and in a lot of pain.
I know he REALLY would appreachiate some get well cards and some moral support for the tough road back to (hopefully) full heslth.
PM me if you want his adres to drop him a line..

Thank you..

Just a small update..

Jean Louis is doing better and better every day, and is actually making a surprisingly fast receovery (thanks to being in good physical shape, and determined to get back in shape asap).

Some complications, but in terms of motor controll, making a good recovery, and expected to get back in working shape to do dangerous stuff in some time..

All the cards received did wonders...thnx!
