Thinking of Allan

On Tuesday evening, an idiot on a bike ran into Allan who was crossing, on foot, at a crosswalk near the Aquarium.  Allan has been left with a severely broken right lower leg and a huge gash on the back of his head.  Not to mention many bruises and scrapes all over.  He has another surgery on his leg so he will be in the hospital for a few more days.  I went to see him at lunch yesterday and was happy to see that his spirits are high even if he looks a little broken.  I am still in shock that doing something as simple as crossing a street can leave you so battered.  Life is short.  Wow.
