Tyler's Ordeal Sunday & Monday

Sunday was not a good day for Tyler. At a little after 1:00pm Tyler crashed between 2 trees at the Cinders. Unconcious and unable to respond to the paramedics, he was air-lifted to John C. Lincoln Hospital in Phoenix. A CAT scan revealed brusing of the brain. He also had a possible separation of his shoulder.

He was placed in the trauma ward in the intensive care unit. He did not respond to stimulus and was put on a respirator to help him breathe and put in a neck brace to secure his neck from possibly injury. Family and friends poured in to offer there support and love for Tyler.

Tyler's sponsors and friends wanted to create a fund that they could contribute monies to help cover the costs of Tyler's medical bills.

Monday was a little better day for Tyler. He started responding to stimuli and even fluttered his eyes on several occasions. He still was unable to breathe on his own and remained in a coma. Although, the morning showed hope that he was coming out of his coma by evening he was back in a deep sleep.
