Legendary pro wrestling voice Jim Ross posted an updated on his blog about his wife's Jan's condition.

Jan Ross was in an accident on Monday when a car driven by a 17-year-old hit her while she was driving her Vespa.

Jan Ross had surgery following the accident and is currently in a coma.

Per JR:

Monday night at approximately 9:30 pm while I was recording the Ross Report about 30 miles from our home, my wife Jan was riding her Vespa home from the gym when when was struck from behind by an automobile driven by a 17 year old young man. Jan suffered a catastrophic brain injury including multiple skull fractures. My little Angel was unfortunately not wearing a helmet which arguably would have prevented the extreme nature of her injuries.

I will fully admit that there has been no experience in my life that could have prepared me for this life changing week. To see one's life partner and love of one's life being kept alive via life support equipment is tragically heartbreaking.
