Prayers Needed

I just wanted to let you all know I will be missing from the boards for a bit. My husband fell 20ft on Sunday from a ladder while trimming a tree for my dad. He has 3 stitches in his nose and fractured 2 vertabrae in his lower back, possibly a third. They aren't sure yet. He also hurt his right shoulder, but not sure the outcome of that just yet. He will be in a back brace, thank god he doesn't need surgery as of right now. The Dr. says he is a very lucky young man. He will be off work for 4-5 months and probably will never be the same. The only thing he is aloud to do is walk when he gets home. So, looks like him and I will get skinny from the walks, and me mowing the lawn and taking care of the house...
Just wanted to share.....if I get any updates on our process...I will send them via my best girl Mindybeth6 or late at night when I get home from the hospital.

LISA~

I pray your husband will have a quick and full recovery. I also pray you will have the time and strength to care for him and take care of the added chores. In Jesus name. Amen

Are you a member of a church group? If so they may be able to help with food, yardwork, etc...

Lisa,

I'm so sorry. I'll be praying for you and your hubby during the long recovery. I also agree that if you have a church family, they can help if they know your need. Don't be afraid to ask. People like to help, if they know what to do. God bless.

You know that I am praying for you girl. Let me know if and what I can do to help out. Even if I need to run down to the hospital it would NOT be a big deal.
