Update 25 June 09 6pm: From Mark Squire

Latest with Sifiso, he cant speak but I just got a message from him on skype saying im home and over whelmed by all the messages in my inbox and face book.

This is what the doc has said about the surgery, “we had to cut an opening like two and half finger wide in his throat to put a spacer between one of the vertebrae. We also had to put a titanium plate with two screws in and had to remove some ligaments that broke. The work was done around the C3 & C4. In six weeks time we will have to see on his improvement and make a decision on a second operation.”

Sifiso has also said, ”im still pretty drugged up i feeling like falling asleep every 5 min but and looking forward to the recovery process. With the help of Marie, Anders and his wonderful family and Andre who have been nothing but family to me while I have been here in Norway and Europe.”

That is unedited so excuse the punctuation, he also said, “its all for a reason but some times it just makes us appreciate the talent you have and know that it can bee all over a split second, but I will be back.”

Now that Skizo is at home and in front of his PC, my updates will be slower but keep coming back here for his updates on Twitter (@sifisonhlapo) and pictures will be loaded to his gallery shortly
