Shane Hmiel continues to make progress in his recovery following surgeries at Indianapolis’ Methodist Hospital following Saturday night’s accident during qualifying for the Silver Crown race at Terre Haute, Ind. He remains in the hospital’s intensive care unit in critical, but stable condition.
Shane has responded to command by moving both arms and doctors attending him are encouraged but remain guarded. He appears to have no head trauma but suffered fractures of both the neck and back.
Shane’s mother Lisa, father Steve and brother Tyler are at the hospital and continue to express their heartfelt thanks for everyone’s continuing prayers.
