Hi, I'm Dreux's cousin Monica. Dreux is an arborist, and he was seriously injured on January 9 while removing a tree from a neighbor's roof following a recent storm. He suffered 8 broken ribs and a lung puncture and is being well cared for by doctors at Marin General Hospital. While he does have health insurance, he will need round-the-clock care following his release from the hospital. He will be unable to work for an extended period of recovery. Any donation you can make would be mightily appreciated so we can get our mountain man back to the tall trees that he loves.

Thank you, and while I'm not a registered member of the "thoughts and prayers" party, they can't hurt...
