Is Zapatones ok?

[amancio]

I have read somewhere he is in hospital, is he ok? There is a campaign in Facebook, send a Xmas card to zapatones with a hospital address in it, but before publishing that addres I would like to confirm good old Zapatones is indeed in hospital.

Yes he is still in the hospital as far as I know. I understand that he was hit by a car and will be operated on tomorrow. Apparently he has two broken legs and broken ribs. He looked pretty bad. This information I saw on several FB Camino pages yesterday.

I read yesterday (via facebook ) that he is very lonely, not many people coming to visit and he worries about his future, it says he will be out of commission at least 2 months... it probably will be longer, he will need physio therapy for walking. He will need front teeth etc... lots of expenses and personally am not sure what the status is of the Spanish health system now with all the cutbacks. I hope his local friends rally around him.

That's what I heard too Ingrid, in fact there is a call to send Christmas cards to him in the hospital. If anyone is interested I will post the information.
