Dan Update

I know many of you are praying for Dan.  I will try to keep my blog updated and post the link to my blog in facebook.

The trauma Dr. is most concerned about the trauma to his brain and they don't want the swelling in his brain to increase so they are watching that closely.  The second most critical injury is the deep bruise to his left lung.  After that the other injuries will heal but it is a long road ahead.  The other injuries are a fractured pelvis, laceration to his head, facial fractures, broken jaw, fractured right wrist and other internal injuries may show up later.  The next 48 to 72 hours are critical as far as the head injury is concerned.  He will likely get worse before he gets better, the ICU nurse said that will be difficult for his family and friends to see.  It is a miracle that he is alive and that EMS could find him.  Please continue to pray.  I will try to keep this up to date and accurate.  His parents are on their way and should be here around 10 pm tonight.  I think his sister is also coming later this week.  Pray for their safe travel and strength through this time.  Thanks for your prayers and concern.  Let's stay as positive and upbeat as we can and keep praying.  Thanks again for your support.
In His Grace,
Kris
