I just wanted to thank everyone on NS who gave thier good vibes to our team rider James Farmer who has been in a Coma for 33 days now. His head injury was a result of taking a big hit on a landing at Big Bear last Easter. James's Family was overwhelmed by the show of support for their Son. While James is still in a Coma, He has now been able to open his eyes, and has been taken off the respirator to breath on his own.

James's Father e-mailed me this today:

"paul,James is going to be OK.I now am sure! today he and I stared into each others eyes for about 20 mins as I spoke to him and he was there and listening. i could tell he was trying to respond to me It was amazing he,s almost there!. Peace-Gordon."

James can now have visitors so if any of his fellow skier friends would like to visit there is visitation information and location address where you can below: www.jamesfarmertrustfund.com Much thanks again to everyone for the good vibes and support. It really has helped in many ways! He is on his way back!!

 
That's awesome he's showing some signs like that! I'm sending him and his family the best vibes possible. Hope he gets better. Stay strong. Thanks for the update.
 
thats so cool to hear, i really hope he comes out, i dont know him, but i all the best to everyone who does
 
Always great to hear positive progess from injuries like this.

Good vibes his way!
 
Best of luck. Hope you can get back on the hill someday soon. Know that we all support you, stay strong.
 
stay dtrong. i really hope everything will be alright.

a buddy of mine had something similiar, now he is back on skis like before.
 
i hope someone prints this out and he can read it for himself in a fu weeks, good vibes all the way man, tell him to get better soon from the uk
 
give him some more ++++++++++ vibes so he can pull out of it completely.

i love how a skiing community can come together and support a fellow rider who needs help
 
My best friend was in a coma for six weeks. James' recovery reminds me of my friend's. After he officially "woke up" from his coma, he rapidly began to speak again, and came back to school the following year to continue his tough, advanced placement schedule. Walking was a bit tougher for him to get back, but he rides a tandem bike with his dad every weekend now. Before his accident, he was one of the strongest kids around, and now he's lifting with the best again. I know your friend will pull through, just be there for him with positive vibes.
