Car Hits Jeff

Jeff was hit by a car this morning in Palms Springs on Highway 74 going 30 MPH downhill. Polly and Pablo were several minutes behind Jeff after having a nice view of the desert from the top of the mountain. Jeff says that he went head first into a pile of bolders. Jo Ann and I arrived to Jeff being taken off the backboard but he still needs to be in a neck brace. Jeff describes the sensation as "my left sholder hurts 8/10 and my lower left back is a 20/10." He also needs a full body CT scan. Jeff is currently getting rolled away into the back to get an X-Ray of his Pelvis. He is extremely scared but is looking good.
