Anyway, here is the Frank update as provided by Emily Dudley.
Frank update:
Unfortunately while Frank was soloing Ambrosia, a rock fell while he was doing a knee-bar and he had to dislocate his own knee to escape with his life. He then dragged himself 12 miles to the nearest town.
He tore his ACL, LCL, PCL, completely, received a Grade I tear in his MCL, which he left intact to prove that he was healthy before this accident and to prevent skin stretchmarks. He also tore both of his minuscai, fortunately the angiogram didn't show any signs of arterial damage. However this morning we learned that Frank also tore the membrane that connects the calf to the bone which then bled until it interfered with Frank's nerve function and blood flow. He underwent an emergency Fasciotomy, which was successful. His calf muscle remains open and has two tubes to drain any excess fluid. He can get this closed on Wednesday at the earliest. Hopefully he can be home by Thursday.
Frank appreciates all his visitors and well-wishers. The hospital stay would be miserable without you. Thankyou

Frank also counted to infinity twice today while swooning nurses, and balancing spinning dishes on his nipples.
