Family of Man in Coma after Bike Crash in Need of a Room in Marin

Ryan Concannon, 21, is now at the Kentfield Rehabilitation Hospital, where officials hope to bring him out of the coma he has been in since a September bike accident in Santa Cruz.

Family members of a UC Santa Cruz graduate who has been in a coma since a September bicycle accident are looking for a room to rent in Marin between the winter holidays.

Ryan Concannon, 21, was transferred to the Kentfield Rehabilitation Hospital earlier this month after spending more than 40 days at the San Jose Regional Medical Center ICU. 

His family is looking for a room to rent from the weekend after Thanksgiving (Dec. 1-2) through December.

Concannon lost control of his bike and flew over the handlebars in Santa Cruz in September. Concannon wasn't wearing a helmet and suffered skull fractures.

He is still in a coma, but has recently started breathing on his own.

During his time in Kentfield - the second phase of his recovery - medical officials will focus on bringing him out of a coma, his mother Patty Concannon wrote on a website family set up to track his condition and raise funds.

“The doctors there gave us info on how to tell the difference of states of consciousness while offering us a lot of hope for his recovery. They tell us that it is not uncommon to have a long time in a coma and that each case is different!”

Ryan’s sister, Megan Concannon, said her mother and her mother’s fiancé are looking for a room or place to stay on what probably be a monthly basis. Ideally, it would be a room that accommodates two, she said. “They like to cook and eat home cooked meals, so a kitchen to use would be great,” she wrote to Patch in an e-mail. 

Megan and Ryan’s girlfriend will also be looking for a place to sleep on Friday and Saturday nights, she said.

If you have a room or house that might work, contact Megan at mpconcan@gmail.com or (425) 785-6998.

Ok obama marin people you talk about helping people and giving to the people in need that's what obama stands for right? Well here is your chance to help I don't see anyone stepping up here to help a family on need.

Couple things here Mike-
1- Turning an appeal for housing assistance into a political rant makes you look like a D-Bag. 2- Why would anyone post in the comments when there is a contact e-mail and phone number? Again, makes you look well.... 3- Craigslist is also a great resource for finding a short term rental nearby. Have a great day!

So bubble did you offer your house for them?? I didn't think so.
Steve November 16, 2012 at 02:41 am
and of course as a republican mike jones would feel no obligation to offer assistance
mike jones November 16, 2012 at 03:10 am
Steve did you offer your home? Thought so
Charuz November 16, 2012 at 02:31 pm
Mike, did you offer yours? I don't live in Marin so don't bother asking if I did.
mike jones November 16, 2012 at 07:11 pm
No I didn't offer my two extra rooms are rented out already with two kids that are in school or else I would. I just think its funny all theses liberals in marin talk about helping people in need put when they are called to help out they walk the other way.

This is an important time to shut up about politics as his poor family doesnt need to read all this. Have some class and tact.
Tina Marie Humphrey November 23, 2012 at 02:49 pm
I agree with cj. I live in a 500 sq ft one bedroom, or I would have them in a heartbeat. But I, like many probably, are simply just now reading this for the first time...give it a rest, Mike... good grief... =)

I went to the Smashburger in Novato & have to say that it was a disappointing experience. TheRead More burger was very mediocore & the onion rings were awful-very greasy. The staff were not friendly & operated with a "Bambi in the headlights" look about them. I do wish Smasburger luck in their locations. However, from my perspective there is a good deal of work that still needs to be done with the food, staff & service. At this time, "In & Out" Burger is a "hand's down favorite...thanks

Sheryl, I would put up our food and our service against any In & Out, anytime, any place. I'llRead More put my burger where my mouth is (literally) and offer you some free vouchers to be at our opening in Mill Valley. Send me an email (jasonwkent@gmail.com) with your mailing address and I'll get those vouchers to you ASAP.

Who can live on that pay in Marin? Maybe someone who walks or bikes to work?
