David Watson Update

| August 17, 2001

Dan Watson, David’s father and mechanic, contacted Cycle News today with good news about his son’s condition. As of this afternoon, Watson’s condition is vastly improved from earlier in the week when he was listed in critical condition following a motocross accident over the weekend.

According to his father Dan Watson, David was up out of bed for a while today and was in a jovial and joking mood. He still has a tube in his chest to help keep fluids from building up, and will remain in the hospital for another week, but he has improved since word first got out of his acccident on Tuesday.
