Andre who have been nothing but family to me while I have been here in Norway and Europe.”

He later typed, “It's all for a reason but some times it just makes us appreciate the talent you have and know that it can be all over in a split second, but I will be back.”

Comment from the Petter the Norwegian National Coach, “It all happened so fast, a little bit of unbalance, and the crash was a fact. I'm sure Sifiso is in the best of hands here in Norway, and Anders and his family is doing a fantastic job on following up at the hospital. We are all very proud to have Sifiso here as our training and travel mate. We all pray for him, and we are sure he will be back stronger than ever ! I'm glad we did all the right things when the crash happened, and got the ambulance as quick as we could. I know we all did our very best in the situation, and we hope this will help in the recovery phase. Please bring our regards to Sifisos family, from all around the Norwegian national team.”


Thursday Update

I'm not sure if it has something to do with a mom's surprise visit but Skizo has improved 200% from yesterday. Thanks to Margot and her team for sending Thoko over, he couldn’t believe it when she walked through the door.

The swelling has gone down in his throat and he has been speaking today and is in very high spirits. Our champ is a lot more mobile and can walk slowly to go to the toilet and shower, he just needs someone close by in case he falls over.

I'm not surprised on the improvement with all the prayers, well wishes and the love and support he has from so many people around him.

Skizo said to me today, “Last year we had a record year at Worlds with the amount of World Numbers South Africa brought home. Without me being there this year I hope the guys that got World numbers will go one better on them this year, and with me sitting out we need some of the other guys to help with extra World numbers so the tally doesn't drop. Thanks again to everyone for their support and we will see you at home soon."

The updates won't be daily on Skizo anymore but weekly from now on, please go to www.skizo105.com and follow him daily from his website as he updates from Twitter (@sifisonhlapo) quite a bit.
