Hello Guys,
Last night my dad was getting out of his tree stand went to grab a limb to hold on to and it broke and fell 25 feet. There was a tree step for him to grab but for some reason he grabbed the limb. He is in the ICU with 2 collapsed lungs, broken ribs, chipped vertebra's and a bad shoulder injury. He is luck to be alive and we hope the MRI's don't show anymore major damage. Please pray for him his name is Steve Taulbee.

Sigh...and it starts... :(
My deepest sympathy for your dad. We live all year for the peace adn tranquility of the woods and our love of hunting and then something like this...!["[dntthnk]"]("graemlins/dntthnk.gif" "\"\"")
That split second when we're tired, cold, hungry or just so at peace we relax too much for that split second...
Prayers that all will heal and your Dad will remember this as a bad dream of last year.
Lord in your mercy...

i'm sorry to hear about your dad, and will be praying for him. accidents happen so quick, 7 years ago i killed a buck, went in the next day to get my stand, lowered it to the ground, threw a couple of things down, while standing on the same limb i had stood on 20 times, snap and down i went. i pray there will be no more injuries, especially internal, and GODS hand will be on him. this should be a wake-up call to us all, it can happen to anyone of us.

UPDATE ON DAD
Steve is doing well it's been almost a week now and I have spent most of that time in the hospital. Steve ended up having both lungs collapse, 2 broke vertebrae in his back and completely shattered his rib cage.
He underwent surgery on Monday where they got the internal bleeding stopped and rebuilt his rib cage with plates on both sides of his body. He hasn't been awake since last Friday but is slowly healing. We hope to have him off the ventilator soon; he is breathing more on his own everyday. God truly is amazing and we thank you so much for your prayers.

I will continue to pray for your Dad as this definatly hits close to home. I climb power poles for a living everyday and I know how devastating falls can be. Always wear a safety harness,your life may depend on it!!

I shared this story with my son who is 30 this month because he was not wearing a safety belt while he hunted. He wears one now. Make you stop and think when this happens. I have seen several people who fell just like that and death would have been a blessing. Safety first always starts with you and me. Continued prayers for you and Dad........Dusty
