For those of ya that havent received the info about what happened to
our dear friend Spider, order up:

On Friday night about 1am, Spider was struck by a car while riding
his bicycle on the corner of 20th and Florida in the Mission. It was
a hit-and-run accident, and a violent one at that. He was brough to
SF General's ER, and is now in the ICU and has stabilized. This
accident has left him with his jaw broken in two places (his left
mandible and right maxillary), a nasty laceration on his sweet face,
a broken left arm, broken sinus, and due to all the swelling from
this facial trauma, has been intubated/is currently on a breathing
tube to keep his airway open. It is heartbreaking to say the least.
We are so infinitely grateful that he did not appear to suffer any
head injuries. His family has been notified, and his mother is coming
up today.

This week he is going to be undegoing some surgeries for the facial
fractures, and he will probably been in the ICU for at least a couple
weeks. A few of us got the notice on Sunday and went to see him--he's
pretty drugged up and sedated, but he did recognize us. If you want
to visit him, he's on the 4th floor in ICU at SF General--since he is
going to have some surgery this week, I would call before paying him
a visit. The number for the ICU is 206-8201. They should know him as
Spider Davila. He has a bulletin board at the foot of his bed, so any
pictures or decoration for that bleak room would be welcome.

His friends at CycleCide have been an amazing support these past few
days--they are organizing a group effort to find out if there were
any witnesses to the accident (a police report was filed)--to keep up
on any developments, go to their website (www.cyclecide.com) and sign
up for an "alias email"--it will add you to their list and you will
forward any CycleCide mail to your regular email. There were a couple
parties going on that night, so we are hoping someone saw something.
If you have any information about the accident, please email me and
I'll give you the number of the contact at Cyclecide.

It goes without saying how beloved and adored our dear Spider is--he
has one of the most generous hearts, quick laughs, and sweetest
dispositions, with the right amount of crazy mixed in to keep us
laughing. I know he would love any visits from his friends. Please
send out warm and healing thoughts to him--and be careful out there.
