Steve Ervink
Friday, May 12, 2006 the beloved guitarist of Dead Like Me was in a terrible car accident with my good friends Joe & Josie and I. Joe's red cavalier collided with a limosine right where Steve's seat upfront on the passenger's side infront of me. We were rushed to the emergency room at St. Joe's. Steve was then transferred to Beaumont Hospital to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit for his head trauma. He was Induced into a coma and hooked up to many stabilizing machines. He's breathing for himself and will speak and move in response to stimulation. Joe, Josie, and I made it out with nothing more than a broken knee, strains, cuts and bruises. We are so thankful everyone's atleast alive.He was riding where i always rode, but for some strange reason no one contradicted his decision to ride shotgun. I should have been the one sitting up there. Not him. Steve saved my life. That boy is my gaurdian angel. That night, the rest of DLM and a few other friends came to visit him and help us support him in this time of need. Please put him in your prayers and wish him the best possible recovery. It would mean a lot to us. Thank You.
