| | Randy is an IYHA Youth Coach and High School Hockey Dad | | |
Randy Bortot, varsity assistant captain Lance Bortot's dad and an Irondale Youth Coach, was in a motorcycle accident Wednesday night November 11 on the way to youth practice. He is facing a lengthy recovery. We will post information here if necessary, but in the meantime, please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.
Randy has a Facebook page that he updates.
After the Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser on December 19th, he posted the following message:
Would like to thank everyone who came to the benefit this morning. Huge thanks the heather schilling and applebees
Randy had additional surgery on Monday, December 21st. According to his facebook page updated by a friend:
..........Just talked to Randy's sister Sheryl. Surgery went very well, doctor was very pleased. Fusion went great and he cleaned up all the bone fragments from around his spine, neck and shoulder area. He'll be in the halo for another 4 weeks or so and will be quite sore so he's going to need all the help and support of his friends. Not sure how long he'll be in HCMC, most likely the whole week.
Update December 29th - Randy is out of the hospital and recovering at home.
As of January 4th, he no longer needs "Randy Buddies" to keep an eye on him. Thank you to everyone at Irondale Youth Hockey for your outstanding support!
