"And then theres the Doug Henrys storythe most difficult one of all. Yamaha released some info on Doug and how his spirits are, but it was hard to tell just what his situation is. The details are vague, but it sounds like Doug is in for another real challenge here. His accident was heavy, and the damages very serious. Hes a fighter, though, and hes one of the toughest, most driven people I will ever know. Theres not a person in this industry thats not pulling for him 100 percent and willing to do whatever they can to help.
One person who has been checking in on Doug himself is David Izer of DMXS radio. He wanted to share this update:
"I have been visiting Doug Henry at the Shepard Spinal Center in Atlanta, and he wanted me to update everyone on his status. Dougs spirits remain high and his signature smile is still apparent. He has suffered a "T-12 complete" injury to his spinal cord. The prognosis of such an injury is not good, but he will not go quietly. Doug realizes the seriousness of his injury but has focused his signature grit and determination on the rehabilitation and his goal to walk. He will leave the Shepard Spinal Center on April 20th, and return home to begin the long road toward his goal. Doug wanted to make sure he thanked everyone for their prayers and well wishes since the accident. They have made a difference and are much appreciated.""..
