Any word from Amy today, Scout? It's been almost a week since cow day.

I called the hospital at noon on Nov 21. The only information I could get was that he is still in the Intensive Care Unit.

This was posted on the 19th by a reader at Doug's other site, The Muse: We visited Doug today and met his wonderful wife Amy. She is holding up so well and I hope everyone is keeping her in your prayers. ..she’s a jewel. Doug has gone from critical to serious and they were taking him off the respirator and hoping he could stay off it. He also opened his eyes a couple days ago according to Amy. Keep praying!!
Cards can be sent to Doug at W. Douglas Thompson, ICU 969, Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital, PO Box 13367, Roanoke, VA 24033. And I know Amy would love to know that we’re thinking of her too.

I hadn't heard anything about Doug's condition, so called the hospital again. They are not allowed to give out any information about his condition, but he is still there, and is in a room, so is out of ICU.
The first operator that I spoke to offered to dial his room for me, but I figured he wouldn't know me so didn't do that.
Hope that if anyone knows more, they'll post on this thread.

At least he's out of ICU. Thanks for letting us know. That was a nasty accident. God be with him.

I called and actually spoke to Doug. He is doing better, but he sounds a bit funny, since every bone in his face was broken. I did give him our best wishes, and told him about this page her. I suspect when he is feeling a nit better, Amy will show him what all we've posted here for him.

Great to hear you are doing better, Doug. It's still a long row to hoe, I'm sure. But from all we've seen from you, you are a strong person that will pull through.
All my best.
