Swordy's down for awhile w/pics
My husband was in a MAJOR accident yesterday, in a smaller car (87 Nissan Maxima). Since I went to the accident site, I can easily say I'm shocked he survived. All battered and bruised, with glass inbedded all over... Moab is now taking back seat! He's going to live and that's the miracle.
For those that know Andy/Swordy.. keep him in your prayers for me. Because of the extent of his injuries and loss of concessness(sp), he was rushed to a great Trauma 1 hospital (Arrowhead) in So Cal. He's beat up and cut all over, minor concussion, staples in his scalp, hairline fracture to his neck, bruised lung, black eyes, glass in his eyes, unable to hear on the right side, and still spitting glass. He's recovering at home (his choice) after they released him at 2am. Today.... PAIN! He doesn't remember the accident at all. His father was in the car behind him and saw the whole thing. Andy took his father to go pick up his second car and they were driving back. A ford Explorer T-boned the passenger side of the Maxima after running a red light at a high speed(witnesses reported this). There's NOTHING left of the Maxima. There was no one at the site that thought anyone could live through it. The local police officer came by this morning to ask if he made it. He was shocked when I said he was home. My father in law took picture that I will try to figure out how to upload tonight.
My requests are for prayers for Andy.... he's a misarable patient! Keeping him down to rest is killing him. There's just too much in life to do to stay still for a day.
Thanks,
Deby
Any replies to this thread I promise to read to him. He needs happy thoughts right now.
