Background of the Story (Plus Hospital Details)

I just received an inquiry from a friend of Beth's who got my note about the blog, but didn't know what was going on because he hadn't received Matt's note from earlier. Ouch. That can't be any fun. I have copied Matt's email here in case anyone else experiences the same thing. Still perfecting the system...

********************************************************************
As some of you may have already heard, Beth was involved in a climbing accident Sunday in Boulder Canyon. While her injuries are not life threatening, Beth sustained severe trauma throughout her body and will be in the Surgical Trauma ICU at St. Anthony Central Hospital in Denver for the next several days as she undergoes several surgeries to repair fractures in her upper and lower body. Fortunately, Beth did not sustain any head trauma. I was with Beth Sunday night and yesterday and I can see and feel that her spirit and mind are strong. She underwent surgery last night on her left arm and all went very well.

Please send Beth your best wishes, prayers, and positive thoughts to help her along as she begins the long journey of healing and recovery.

Please forward this message to those friends and associates that I may have missed in this email.

For those interested in sending a get-well gift to Beth in the next several days, it should be noted that the ICU prohibits live flowers.

Please use Beth's full name: 

Elizabeth Davis

The hospital address:

St. Anthony Central Hospital

TSICU Room 259

4231 W. 16th Ave.

Denver, CO 80204

Future changes in Beth's room number will be provided in the blog.

I apologize if you have received this email several times.

Thank you for your support and consideration,

Matthew Frank
