Sorry to hear this. So sad. Prayers on the way for him and his family.
Here in the Houston Texas and surrounding area there are a lot of deer around. However, they have taken a backseat to the hogs in our area, they are taking over. Hit one in my truck about a month ago down by sargent, luckily it was a sow and about 10 piglets. My truck cleared the piglets but my boat trailer nailed 2 of them. After hearing that "thunk" and feeling the whole truck sudder I instantly thought "manoman.....iffin i was on my Valk I would be on the pavement."

Great to hear it. cursed deer. Hunters around here have 'em all jumpy this time of year. Missed a runner by an inch a couple summers back. I hope none infringe on my comfort zone like that again.

Great News!! Glad your back at it.  I lost my best riding buddy this year from "complications" he was given at the hospital, when they talked him into letting them operate on a "tumor" they spotted in his gut while doing x-rays from his crash. His injuries were very similar to what yours were. Turned out, the tumor was benign. If your up to it, would you relate how it happened? Maybe we can learn something.

That's how I always imagine it. It would be just like when that bug from out of nowhere suddenly goes "splat" on your windshield. Only its a deer. -Mike

The good news is I have climbed back on and ridden some....Felt good ! was a little antsy but ok  Good to hear, Donut. I understand the antsy part. It gets better over time. Only you can decide but rest assured the odds are no different now than they were before. Good to hear the lung is healed.
