Medical status update
Dear Liga family member
Update as of Friday morning:
On Wednesday afternoon Liam and Julia were checked in at a Trauma
Center in San Diego where they have received a thorough
assessment. With better CT technology, they think Julia
may need a little work on an eye socket and she also has a vertebra fracture that
will need surgery. Still, she is smiling and glad her dad bought her an iPhone
4s so she could Facebook!. Liam has an
ankle sprain. Both Liam and Julia will most likely to be released in a few days.
Hayley arrived in San Diego
late Thursday. As we get additional information we will be sure to pass it
along. Things are getting better daily!
So many Liga members have been working hard to help all four families with the
aftermath of this event. What an amazing group of people Liga is made up of!
AOPA writer Dave
Hirschman was on scene in Mexico last
weekend with Liga and has published this article and video regarding the crash.
Not what we had hoped for when we invited them down.
