While I don’t know Larry that well, he’s earned my respect and appreciation just from the few interactions we’ve had.

I also wish Larry a quick and speedy recovery and continued strength to the rest of the family.

Ouch! I’m so sorry to hear about the accident AND about the fact that you haven’t had much for the pain until now! Tylenol is hardly sufficient (but you already know this). I hope that you will mend quickly and recover your memory fully. And, as you slog up that road, know that I, like so many others of your professional friends and colleagues, will be keeping you close in my heart.

And Jed, thanks for letting us know how your Dad is doing. If there is anything any of us can do, I hope you’ll feel free to call on us!

Glad to hear of the progress Larry is making. It is clear there is still a road ahead to be traveled, but we are grateful for the progress so far. Best wishes to Larry, Geri and the whole family. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Best wishes and prayers for a complete recovery from another usability colleague, Tom Tullis– also Larry’s “card-sorting buddy”, as I like to call us! I’m sure the road to recovery won’t be easy, but knowing you, Larry, you’ll stick with it. Just take it one step at a time.

Thanks very much, Jed, for blogging about your Dad’s progress. It means a lot to all of us who know Larry both professionally and personally.

Best wishes for a full recovery from a usability colleague (and occasional Websort user). Larry, it sounds like you’re on a rough road, but I’m glad you have family and friends around you. Jed, thanks for blogging your father’s recovery process - I hope you are pleasantly surprised by the number of people who care. I’m one of ‘em.

I’m sure you guys know this, but for the benefit of blog readers who may not… that trusty chartreuse helmet should never be worn again. Keep it as a souvenir, as an illustration for a cautionary tale, but helmets are designed to get their wearers through ONE accident only. This one is history now, with our thanks for making the ultimate sacrifice in order to protect Larry’s head.
