Just an update on Sam's progress. I asked if I can share the news and he says yes.
He's helping build a local jump track, all official and 2 day's ago on his last run of the day over the jumps his endless youthfull enthusiasm finally caught up with him.
I don't know how it happened or how he got the large gash right under his eye socket,
But today he sent me a message tonight at 8pm which says
"Been in theatre since 2pm I'm all stitch up "
and this photo
And here's a good before picture

Re: Sammy survivor update
Tbh the wound looked quite nasty actually. I saw the pic on his insta story and I know I'm no Dr but it looked like his eye could have simply fell out!

Reminds me of the 1990s Oakley Goggle advertising phrase 'Chicks dig scars, not the hole where your eye use to be'
Get well soon Sam.
