They mentioned a neck injury, so that could be the surgery. No fun, that's for sure. I fractured my C6 in a car accident once, fortunately I didn't need surgery...

He's a very private individual, so we may never know? The car he was in flipped several times.

I wish him the best and a speedy recovery.
The early stories today almost read like obituaries. The CNN story
truly sounds like there are no life-threatening injuries, which, to me,
is good news.

he probably smashed the heck out of his bones and they need reconstructive surgery to repair it...i'm curious as to what the "other fractures" are though:

could be vertabrae which is why they keep him listed in serious condition...my step brother had a wreck fairly similar many years ago only he didn't flip the car, just launched it off an embankment about 50 or so feet, when it landed his seatbelt snapped his back; he had numerous surgeries and was in the hospital for months...i wonder if it's something like that...

i'm just glad it's not considered life threatening!
