Travis Barker Shares Pictures of His Hospital Stay on MySpace

Former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker shared some pictures of his time at the hospital after he and DJ AM were injured in a plane crash, but sadly killed four others, according to the Cleveland Leader. Barker uploaded the photos on his MySpace page along with a heartfelt thank you to his fans. Here’s a portion of what he wrote:

I want to give my deepest thanks to everyone who has helped deal with the current situation. First and foremost, Chris and Che were my friends. I would give up anything to have them here with us today, healthy and happy. To call them my employees does them such a disservice, as they were so much more than that. Chris was my best friend before anything else, and I can never put into words how much he will be missed. Che was an amazing person as well, and I was honored to have him in my life.

I am simply amazed and will be forever grateful for all the support everyone has shown to Chris and Che’s families. Its a testament to how many lives they touched in a positive way.

Now Im just counting the days until I can leave. I cant wait to get home to play drums with my son, and go for bike rides with my daughter. I cant wait to see the pictures from Landon’s “Jack and Sally Nightmare Before Christmas” birthday party that we had for him today. I am bummed that I couldn’t be there, but thank God Ill be around to see many, many more.

Thank you everyone for your support!

It sounds like he’s in good spirits and that his recovery is going well. It’s great that he took the time to blog for his fans too. Let’s hope he continues to heal and can get to playing with his kids again soon.
