T850 race in Haliburton, Ontario.
Todd's critchfield was was basically speared when another racer hooked.
Todd swerved left and in doing so exposed the starboard underside of his boat.
The nose of the other boat punched through Todd's boat in the cockpit area, below the waterline.
Todd was ejected from the boat along with the seat.
He suffered a compound fracture of his right femur and a fractured pelvis.
He's undergone 2 surgerys at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto.
He's in good spirits and is making good progress on his recovery.

Just got back from seein TBuck at Sunnybrook Medical Centre.
He's doing very well. He's been up and walking around (with a walker) and is pretty much off all the hardcore meds.
He's also learned that in a Canadian Hospital home made Butter Tarts are like cigarettes in prison. He's been trading the diabetic delights for chocolate milk and few other special perks.
He's been cleared to head home and may be on his way by Thursday morning.
