How it happened

Honza was at the Russian River with some of his best friends. He jumped into the water either from the bank of the river or the shallow end. He hit his head and from then on couldn't feel or move anything from neck down. He started drowning, but luckily his friends were there to quickly drag him out of the water and call 9-1-1. Shortly after, the helicopter came to rescue him, and flew him to Memorial Hospital in Santa Rosa, where he is staying now. He had to have a surgery done to correct his spine and vertebrae, and now he has a tube down his throat and is on all kinds of medications, IVs, sleeping doses and so on. He still can't feel his legs or arms, but he can nod his head and see, hear, think and whatnot. That's pretty much it so far, and I would appreciate your help, which at this point is donations and spreading the word. Thanks
