Not sure if anyone has actually cares about this because I haven't seen anything posted about her crashing as Crankworx and the following problems. Hopefully she's on the road to a full recovery, scary story if you know the background....

Good news!
Here's an article on her accident, awesome line "People in Chile are waiting for the downhill princess to wake up."

Wow, I hadn't even heard about that. Wonder what happened exactly?
I'm actually surprised (and glad) that DH doesn't have a lot more bad accidents like this.

It was something along the lines of a blood clot, steming from her broken leg that went to her brain or lungs (forget which, another article might say).

Yeah, I got that. What I meant was, I wonder what the cause of the accident was. Originally Posted by kidwoo
