Hey all,
Houdini Days organizer and part of the magic team Chris and Mike was in a serious car accident below is a message I recieved. Please keep Chris in your thoughts and prayers. Hi Shawn, On a sad note. I was talking to Chris Cochrane's boss this morning and Chris was in a really bad car crash after driving one of the last magicians to the airport. He broke both legs, was knocked out, and spent some time in a coma. He is awake now and has had some surgery to put pins in his legs. Chris is a great guy with a great event and it is sad that it had to end with this. If you need any other info or hadn't heard let me and I update you.

I have been reeling ever since I heard the news this morning...this is the most horrifying news. I was just with him this weekend and he did a behemoth job of organizing an unbelievable weekend. to know that he is hospitalized and in pain is heartbreaking.
I spoke with Mike Schroeder today Tuesday ... as of this morning Chris was being kept in a drug induced coma because of the pain... two broken legs and a broken ankle. Car was totalled. They are still trying to sort out the dangling parts of the weekend... Chris Cochrane, organizer of the Houdini Days event over Labor Day weekend --- On Monday after taking Jon Stetson to the airport in Appleton lost control of his car while driving back on College Avenue. He hit a lightpole and the car flipped over. Had to be cut out of the car. HE WAS WEARING HIS SEAT BELT, but two broken legs. In such pain that they induced a coma to help him heal; and he's still hospitalized. Maybe he was tired when it happened, I know he had been running on little sleep while he took care of the million and one details to put on Houdini Days event which was spectatcular. Check <http://www.houdinidays.com>www.houdinidays.com for more details. Pray, chant, face the east, ...do whatever you do when you appeal to a higher power... If all you can do is think positive thoughts, then please do it... this man can use all the help he can get right now... doc
