Just finding out my accident prone uncle fell off a ladder today. He has broken bones all over. I am getting reports of broken ribs, pelvis and neck. I have not received any further update except he's in the hospital and in a lot of pain.
Praying for a full recovery. :pray: :pray: :pray:
Prayers offered.
More prayers sent for your uncle.
Prayers sent.
Missed this one somehow..
Hope he knits up ok..
Dunno how old a gent he is but gads...that's a lot of breaks! :(
Prayers up! :pray:
Just saw this too and praying he gets well soon and recover's quick!
Please keep us posted on his condition !
Thanks fellas, he's doped up pretty good and out of surgery. In ICU to recover. Has no idea which way is up right now
hoping for a full recovery!
Back was fixed where broken. Neck fracture was minor, they will let heal. Broken ribs, nothing they can do. Has to wear a shell for a couple months. Took a step backwards today and currently getting a blood transfusion. Doctors discovered osteoporosis, which caused the excessive bone breakage
Will be in ICU at least another day.
Been hearing of more and more awareness that older folks don't "fall and break a hip" but that the hip spontaneously snapped causing them to fall. Osteoporosis is bad stuff...
Read where drinking a lot of carbonated "stuff" sucks calcium out of your bones like a sponge sucks up water...
Prayers Uncle will get on top the Osteoporosis and mend those bones!
So sorry to hear this news. Prayers for a full recovery.
:pray:
Uncle is coming along nicely. If he can get into and out of bed and a car by Friday they will let him go home. Still a long road ahead.
Good news there Charley! I hope he continues on a level road and gets his verve back!
Prayers for a tough uncle...
:pray:
It is great to hear the surgery has gone well. Prayers will continue.
