Unhappy Prayer Request Real Brother in Com

Hello Folks,

I would like you all to pray and remember my Brother and also a Us Vet (only age 22). while going home Sunday afternoon in a rain storm he lost control of his Truck (By Hydroplaning) went over an embankment ,end over end, and rolled it many times. he was thrown from the truck ,has several broken ribs,a broken collar bone, swelling in his brain and is now in a coma as of late last night.

When we got to finally see him after they got him stabilized after many close calls of losing him multiple times the last few days . He is not responding to much of anything at this time he is on life support and a feeding tube ,with a pressure relief tube in his head. I will let y'all know as things are updated for the family.



Sam

Most certainly, Doug, we'll lift up your brother in prayer. I am so sorry to hear of your brother's accident.

Kind regards,

Sam, that sounds like an awful crash. Prayers for a speedy recovery for your brother from Gods' gracious hand are yours, sir.

I would also like to Thank You and your brother both for your service to our nation.

Hey guys ,

They (Vanderbilt Hospital) still have not got to do the MRI due to the Metal probe in the top of his head monitoring the Swelling on his brain. when they stopped the meds for pain and other things to remove the air tube he was lost for a few minutes they brought him back and reinserted the tubed so he could breath . also had to give him meds for the pain he was in he is currently not responding at all (we hope this is just the meds doing their job) he is still in a coma .

More as we find out .

thank you for the prayers

Sam
