Pass on your best wishes to Jesse Martin here

Re: Pass on your best wishes to Jesse Martin here

Best wishes to Jesse from Minneapolis, MN.

Hockey players are tough SOB's and I'm confident I will see you back on the ice following your recovery.

Martin is in stable condition at Hennepin County Hospital in Minneapolis, where he was airlifted from Grand Forks last night.

He has 3 fractures to the C-2 vertabrae, which are near the base of the skull.

Good to hear he has feeling in all extremities. The real test will be whether he has loss of 1 or more cervical nerve roots that correlate with sensory motor movement of upper body muscle groups. The good news is treatment modalities for C2 fractures are generally very successful.

Here's the hit:

Not sure if it's been mentioned here yet but former Badger Davis Drewiske broke two vertabrae in his neck and has made a full recovery and is now an NHL regular with the LA Kings. Here's to hoping that Mr. Martin can make the same recovery. Best wishes Jesse.

LINK to an article on Drewiske's injury.

Thoughts and prayers from Miami, we certainly know and understand what your program is going through with scary injuries. Best of luck!
 
Re: Pass on your best wishes to Jesse Martin here

Jesse, I have been watching you play in person for four years. I know what I hard worker you are on the ice, and I am sure you will use that determination to come back stronger than ever. Get well soon!
 
Re: Pass on your best wishes to Jesse Martin here

Get well soon Jesse! You are definitely in our thoughts and prayers.

Why does that surprise you?

The gesture did not surprise me at all, but the timing of it did. I would have thought Jesse would wait a few days and see what his own future would be before he reached out. That fact that he didn't wait just makes me prouder of Jesse and the Pioneer program.
