Josh Perry Tumor Surgery Update

April 18, 2010

Following surgery to remove a tumor in his head, Josh Perry is on the mend.

Following the news of Eastern's Josh Perry being diagnosed with a non-cancerous brain tumor last week, Josh went in for surgery at noon on Friday, April 16, and the surgery was a success. How do we know this? Because Josh basically Twittered his way through the entire process. Here's a quick rundown of Josh's Tweets leading up to and immediately after the surgery.

Friday, April 16, 10:01am: "Going in at noon for a 4-hour operation. Pretty nervous but feel better thanks to everyone and the positive thoughts and prayers!!!!"

Friday, April 16, 10:57pm: "Hey guys! Just got out, feel amazing and so relieved!! I'm so happy because I can move everything and should be home very soon."

Sunday, April 18, 9am: "Doc says I'm doing so well I can go home today. Might be going home tonight."

So it looks as though all things are well for Josh, and that he might even be riding again by mid-summer. You can track Josh's progress or send words of encouragement through his Twitter account.

Mike Payne Update

April 1, 2010

Mike is a trooper! If you were at this year's Extreme Thing dirt contest or heard anything about it, then you should know that Mike took a really ugly fall on a double backflip attempt. As promised, we have more info on his current condition.


I wanted to start off by letting everyone know that I'll be fine from the double flip to face from March 27th. The only bone I seemed to have broken from the accident was my nose. However, I did manage to nearly rip my bottom lip right off and I gave myself one of the worst concussions I've ever had. After nearly twenty stitches the doctors did their best to tuck my lip back inside and reattach it as one piece. Though my entire body hurts and my face looks like it doesn't belong to me, I know I got off extremely lucky and in a couple weeks I'll be close to my old self again. I'm very thankful to be alive and extremely thankful for my friends and family who I worried the hell out of and I apologize to everyone for that bad decision. Since Saturday I've gotten a lot better. The swelling across my face has gone down dramatically, and I was able to eat solid food for the first time today. It felt amazing to not have to eat through a straw.

Now that this part of recovery is well under way, it is the next part that really scares me. I'm honestly just a little terrified as I'm trying to ready myself for the medical bills I've accumulated. I haven't a clue how I'm going to afford to pay them since I recently lost my medical insurance. But as it stands, I want to thank everyone that had their hearts out for me and kept me in their prayers, I'm recovering as good as I am because of each and every one of you. My family has been amazing to me and has been by my side at all times since the fall, as well as my beautiful girl Danielle. They're doing all they can so I can eat and recover comfortably. I need to apologize to the people I haven't been able to respond to, simple tasks like texting or writing are quite hard to complete as of lately, so I've been resting to try to take care of what currently needs my attention. Thank you again to everyone that has helped any way they could, and to everyone that has been concerned of my well being, I love you all.
