Week 12

Sorry it has been a couple of weeks since I blogged. It has been a crazy couple of weeks. Friday night June 22 my brother-in-law, Chad, was in a very serious car accident. He was on his way home at about 10:45pm on a highway in Quitman and hit a 1200lbs mule going 70mph. The car behind him said he never hit his breaks, and the car coming at him in the other lane said they never saw the mule either. It took the Fire Dept., EMT's, etc. 20 minutes once they got there to cut him out of the car. Thank God there were other cars there to call and get them there so fast! They had to intubate him on the scene. They took him by ambulance to the local hospital and then care flighted him to Tyler. He is still in a coma. He responds to pain and he reaches for where the pain is. His is at a 7 on the coma scale from 1-15, 15 being the best (where a normal person is). He is not progressing as quickly as the doctors think he should, but he is progressing. His birthday is tomorrow. He will be 22.
