Thank you all for your Thoughts and Prayers.
My dad is doing as good as can be expected.
Since then, we have learned that he shattered a vertebrae, fractured several others, broke a rib, and has a significant head injury. He successfully underwent surgery on Saturday, and they fused the T11, T12, L1, L2, and L3 vertebrae. In recovery, he was able to move his toes upon request (although cranky about it).
The swelling in his head has gone down.
At this point, we believe he will be in the hospital for up-to a week. He then has a lengthy recovery (hopefully at home), which will include a back brace and physical therapy.
My father is lucky to be alive. God has graced him with a chance to rebuild not only his body but also his spirit.
Please continue to pray for a speedy recovery of both.
