Truly an amazing guy...His blog has some pics.

His 11/15 post is very inspiring...

I've made some big gains since Sept 3rd, but all of my recovery would
not be possible without my team. This team includes my doctors, the
physical therapists and my massage therapists. It also includes all of
the people that did not sign up to be in the health care field -
especially my sister and her family, my parents and extended family,
Grant and the rest of the crew that pulled me out of the water, my
sisters friends who have brought meals and run errands, my friends and
teammates and also from the fellow swimmers and even strangers who have
sent cards, letters and even money.

The rippling effects of
accidents and injuries is huge, but so is the effort required for
repairs. Thank you for your continued support.

I'm not done. I
have a long way to go. For every one time I'm able to buckle the seat
belt on my own, there are ten times I'm not able to. I can eat a bowl
of cereal on my own, but I can't take the cap off the milk (or lift the
bottle if its too full). And on and on.

So, I'm celebrating the
victories... but I'm humbled by the enormity of it all. I will be
leaning on you (figuratively and sometimes literally) for a long time.

Now up to Half Moon Bay!
